Lyrics

If I could fly away today, I would

If given the opportunity, I would choose to fly away today

I would

Reiteration of the desire to fly away

If I could run away today, I would

If given the chance, I would run away today

I would

Repetition of the desire to run away

And if I could be someone else for a day, I would

If possible, I would like to be someone else for a day

I would

Reiteration of the desire to experience life as someone else

And if I could go back in time for a day, I would

If given the chance, I would go back in time for a day

I would

Repetition of the desire to revisit the past

But there's one thing I will never do

Expressing a commitment or decision not to do something

And I won't share it with you

I won't share a particular thing with you


Oh, I wanna be loved, but still cannot love

Desire to be loved, despite struggling to reciprocate

And I wanna be touched, but still cannot touch

Desire for physical touch, while acknowledging difficulty in giving it

And I want to be me, but still I'm not

Expressing a conflict with one's identity, wanting to be oneself

Still I'm not

Reiteration of the internal struggle

I'm not me

Emphasizing a sense of not being true to oneself


Mm, I wanna be free, but know I can't be

Expressing a desire for freedom, despite acknowledging limitations

And I'm trying to see who I can be

Struggling to identify one's true self

I want to be me, but still I'm not

Repetition of the desire to be oneself

Still I'm not

Reiteration of the internal conflict

I'm not me

Emphasizing a sense of not being true to oneself (repeated)


Oh, I wanna be real, but still cannot feel

Desire to be real/authentic, coupled with difficulty in feeling

And I wanna be warm, but still I am cold

Desire for warmth, contrasted with a sense of coldness

And I'm trying to see who I can be

Continued struggle to identify one's true self

And I'm trying to see who I will be

Continued exploration of one's future identity

I wanna be loved, but still cannot love

Repetition of the desire to be loved, despite difficulties

And I wanna be touched, but still cannot touch

Repetition of the desire for touch, despite challenges

And I want to be me, but still I'm not

Repetition of the conflict with one's identity

Still I'm not

Reiteration of the internal struggle

I'm not me

Emphasizing a sense of not being true to oneself (repeated)


If I could fly away someday, I would

If given the opportunity in the future, I would choose to fly away

I would

Reiteration of the desire to fly away in the future

And if I could run away someday, I would

If given the chance in the future, I would run away

I would

Repetition of the desire to run away in the future

And if I could be someone else for a day, I would

If possible in the future, I would like to be someone else for a day

I would

Reiteration of the desire to experience life as someone else in the future

And if I could go back in time for a day, I would

If given the chance in the future, I would go back in time for a day

I would

Repetition of the desire to revisit the past in the future

But there's one thing I will never do

Expressing a commitment or decision not to do something (repeated)

But I won't share it with you

Repetition of not sharing a particular thing with you (repeated)
