Wish I Was

The silence presses heavily, my heart beats faster steadily
The thousand voices fill my head, they whisper that they want me dead
The birds that fly, they dip and rise
They say they want me home by night
So I’ll stay longer then, I walk it so I’ll reach the end
I’m out of my mind, but I’m so wise
I’d give it all to hear the voice inside
I’m not up and live but I wish I was
I’d be outta my mind with a simple push
And I ain’t ready to fall
To break free of these walls
With the waterfalls into the night
There are things that sing and things that bite
I walk and walk until I fall in the water rim
Don’t know the thing that might?
I know they will still rain
I’m out of my mind, but I’m so wise
I’d give it all to hear the voice inside
I’m not up and live but I wish I was
I’d be outta my mind with a simple push
And I ain’t ready to fall
To break free of these walls
(Bridge)
To break free of these walls
To break free of these walls
I’m out of my mind, but I’m so wise
I’d give it all to hear the voice inside
I’m not up and live but I wish I was
I’d be outta my mind with a simple push
And I ain’t ready to fall
To break free of these walls
