I wish

Those uplifting songs are all that ever stays true
They never tell me those lies like I love you
What could I do if I never trusted him
Those hopes that faltered and those chances slim
They’d blossom more than my feelings of adoration
It didn’t take nothing but some words to find temptation
I could easily fix everything with just a few goodbyes
Erase everything from memory, love, want, hate, and lies
I could care for myself and never get harmed
I’d never be surprised and never alarmed
I want only to be okay and alright
I don’t ever want to say goodnight
I know though that if I leave that lives could be risked
My thoughts and feelings all whisked
I have to stay, I have to be strong
I’m not always right but I’m not always wrong
You won’t always be the person you are today
You won’t always have a say
I wish I could be there all the time
Be there beside you during that climb
But I pushed you away and told you to leave
If only it were your words that I believe.
