I Wish I Could Fly
Yearning for Freedom: Escaping Pain and Pretense
Lyrics
Try to go to sleep
Expressing difficulty in falling asleep.
Bad thoughts in my head
Experiencing negative thoughts in the mind.
Tell me I should be dead
Feeling overwhelmed, with thoughts suggesting self-harm.
It's true
Acknowledging the truth of the distressing thoughts.
All I have is you
Addressing a significant person as a source of support.
I don't feel like me
Feeling disconnected from one's own identity.
Or anything
Experiencing a lack of connection with anything.
I still overthink
Continuing to overanalyze situations, causing distress.
It's hell
Describing the emotional state as a form of hell.
Unfamiliar with myself
Feeling unfamiliar and disconnected from oneself.
Pull me down
Requesting assistance to overcome personal struggles.
I'm stuck
Feeling trapped or unable to progress.
Enough of this
Expressing a desire to end the current situation.
And I just wish I could fly
Expressing a longing for the freedom symbolized by flying.
Say goodbye to all the pain
Wishing to escape and leave behind emotional pain.
I'm so messed up
Acknowledging personal struggles and emotional turmoil.
So I'm giving up
Considering giving up due to internal conflicts.
I fall every time
Recurring failures or setbacks in personal endeavors.
Cause everybody lies
Expressing a lack of trust in others due to deception.
I'm such a fraud
Feeling like an imposter or not genuine in personal presentation.
Oh I'm not the one they all think I am
Rejecting the false perception others have of the person.
It's something I can't stand
Expressing discomfort with the misrepresentation.
Pull me down
Repetition of the request for assistance in overcoming struggles.
I'm stuck
Reiterating a feeling of being trapped or unable to progress.
Enough of this
Repetition of the desire to end the current situation.
And I just wish I could fly
Re-emphasizing the wish for freedom and escape through flying.
Say goodbye to all the pain
Reiterating the desire to leave behind emotional pain.
I gotta stop trying to be someone
Acknowledging the need to stop trying to be someone one is not.
I'll never be
Realizing the impossibility of becoming someone else.
But they don't want to see
Highlighting the reluctance of others to accept the true self.
The real me
Expressing the desire for others to see and accept the authentic self.
The real me
Repetition of the longing for acceptance of the true self.
