For my friend who was jealous because she thought my life was easier than hers.
I wish you could be me
Even for just one day
So you can see the world through my eyes
See all the fucked up ways
You say my life is easy
Nothing is ever wrong
But there are days where I'm missing something
My mind, it seems to be gone
I wasn't always "pretty"
Although you like to think so
I wish you could see the world through my eyes
It'd make a really good show
It's not easy when everyone thinks you're so smart
And you should always know what to do
I wish you could be me for just one day
Then you'd have a clue
Nobody realizes how tough it can be
Through my eyes you cannot see
You don't want to take the time to get past your illusions
My life in your eyes is just a delusion
Of something perfect or that's not there
I wish my life with you I could share
Just for one day
That's all I ask
Just to be me is a big enough task
To go on everyday and put up with the shit
And for all the things in return you do not get
You're not appreciated or recognized at all
Do you think you want to be me now, do you have the gall?
To say that you do, you don't take the time
To realize how easy your life is compared to mine
If you want to I'll put you to the test
And then these delusions of yours will be put to rest
I wish you could be me
For just one day
So you can see the world through my eyes
See all of the fucked up ways
