Something I Could Never Be

[Verse 1]

I wish I could be normal but what does that even mean?

I wish I could be smaller, taller and everything in between

I wish I could be patient, ‘cause they say that it’s a virtue

But I just want a quick fix, trade me in for someone new

[Pre-Chorus 1]

‘Cause it all seems perfect in my dreams

But when I wake up I’m still me

[Chorus 1]

Does anybody have it all?

Can anybody set me free?

When the midnight falls, I turn myself on me

It hits me like a drop of ink, clouding everything I see

But if I’m being honest

All I ever wanted was something I could never be (Mhm)

[Verse 2]

Back when I was younger, doubt knocked at my door

Asked me if I’m worthy and filled my head with words

Like shouldn’t I be stronger and that boys shouldn’t cry

If beauty’s for beholders, could you lend me your eyes?

[Pre-Chorus 2]

‘Cause it all seems perfect in my dreams

But when I wake up I’m still me

[Chorus 2]

Does anybody have it all?

Can anybody set me free?

When the midnight falls, I turn myself on me

It hits me like a drop of ink, clouding everything I see

But if I’m being honest

All I ever wanted

[Bridge]

Is to be okay not being okay

Maybe it’s right to go the wrong way

Imperfection is just perception

[Chorus 3]

‘Cause no one really has it all

Nobody can set me free

When the midnight falls, I won’t turn on me

I’m setting fire to the dark, lighting up the truth at heart

Finally, I’m honest, there’s no love in wanting

Something I could never be

[Outro]

(Mhm) Something I could never be

(Mhm) Something I could never be

(Mhm) Something I could never be, mm-hmm
