little vampire wishes

i wish i believed you
i wish i still believed in you
i wish you were here
i sometimes wish he wasn't,
or rather maybe that he was

i wish there didn't have to be a choice
i wish that rhyming wasn't passé
(something here, about your voice...)

i wish i hadn't run out of poetry
i wish i could make it all go away

i wish you were here (again)
i wish i could go there
i wish it were different

i wish growing up didn't have to mean
giving up, giving in

i wish i could see the back of my head
i wish i could see your face
i wish we lived in the same world

i wish you hadn't given up
i wish we could talk about how we both gave up
i wish someone would tell me how to come back to life
without feeling like i'm dying at the same time

i wish he hadn't called me gloomy
i wish she hadn't either
i wish they weren't always so right
and i wish they would tell me more

i wish there was time to talk
i wish there was time to sleep
i wish there was time to do it all

i wish i knew what to do
