I sometimes wish I could see the truth
And know more details of my youth
But most times I am much too afraid
Of the prices that I think might be paid
I sometimes wish for a glance ahead
So I’d know what is better left unsaid
There’s things I’d like to be unspoken
Even if it leaves me still feeling broken
I sometimes wish that I could be brave
All these barriers I could then waive
And show the things I have concealed
So that the real me would be revealed
I sometimes wish that I had less fear
And all the parts of me could cohere
Then one could not rule over the rest
I’m just so tired of this absurd contest
I sometimes wish that all my desires
And all the things my heart requires
Would just stop nipping at my heels
But they don’t despite all my apeals
I sometimes wish that I could undo
Many things that I have been through
Even when I know they’ve shaped me
Right now it’s the pain I can only see
I sometimes wish that I could recall
I’d know who to blame once and for all
For all of this hurt that does still exist
And the heartache that does still persist
I sometimes wish that I could reveal
Everything that my heart does feel
But to think of what the cost could be
It doesn’t feel like I would be set free
