If I had just one wish
I'd wish for no more wishes
I don't want to wait for hate to dissipate
I want to create something great
Drop my pennies in the pond each day
But nothing ever seems to go my way
Every night I try to catch my dreams
I don't even know if I'm asleep
Try to count the stars up in the sky
But I could never hope to count that high
Unless I dream
So I'll just close my eyes and try to sleep
If I could run from all my worries, I would sprint
I don't want to try to be better than the next guy
I don't wanna fight, don't wanna hide, don't wanna die
Don't wanna drop my pennies down the drain each day
I don't wanna give every single piece of me away
Every night I try to catch my dreams
I don't even know if I'm asleep
Try to count the stars up in the sky
But I could never hope to count that high
Unless I dream
So I'll just close my eyes and try to sleep
I'll just close my eyes and try to
Sleep off all my nightmares
Cause they cut me to the core
They trickin me, sicken me, kickin me, stickin me
Pickin meat off of me just cause they gotta eat
Gotta beat every bit. Obsolete. Counterfeit
Maybe it's time to quit
Who would that benefit
Sleep off all your worries
You don't need them anymore
Dream away your troubles
And wake up to something better than before
Every night, I try to catch my dreams
I don't even know if I'm asleep.
Every night, I try to catch my dreams
But I don't even know if I'm asleep
Someday I'll count the stars up in the sky
How could I ever hope to count that high
Unless I dream
So I'll just close my eyes and try to sleep
