Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
I'd save you from yourself
And sometimes I wish I could take somethin'
A little bit stronger to drown you out
[Verse 2]
Were you ever happy?
Or did I read you all wrong?
Were you still in mending
While I loved you lights on? (Lights on, lights on, lights on)
[Verse 3]
All this time
I've been wastin' my mind
I've been wastin' my mind
[Verse 4]
All this time
I've been wastin' my mind
I've been wastin' my mind
[Verse 5]
Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
I'd save you from yourself
[Verse 6]
You're keeping a straight face
So what am I to do?
And when you look in the mirror
Am I still looking at you?
Taking my all, you were drowning us dead
'Cause ever since the fall you've been hidin' what you meant
And I wish I saw all the doubt that you felt
'Cause now you're out, now you're out
[Verse 7]
All this time
I've been wastin' my mind
I've been wastin' my mind
[Verse 8]
All this time
I've been wastin' my mind
I've been wastin' my mind
[Verse 9]
All this time
I've been wastin' my mind
I've been wastin' my mind
[Verse 10]
All this time
I've been wastin' my mind
I've been wastin' my mind
[Verse 11]
Sometimes I wish I was the hero in your story
I'd save you from yourself
And sometimes I wish I could take something
A little bit stronger to drown you out
