“Wishing it Was” is quite depressing, simple to see. Someone tries to win the heart of the singer, but the singer urges them to stay away, because they live off of negativity and are weak with happiness, meaning that in order for the narrator to be happy, they must hurt their lover, which they don’t...
[Intro]
Wishing it was
[Verse 1]
Beauty and grace is what touches me most
Good times can put me in fear
I always feel safe when things are bad
So I cannot let you come near
[Pre-Chorus]
It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things
I always feel alive when the death bell rings
Now you come and you bring out the tears in me
[Chorus]
Pain never makes me cry, but happiness does
It's so strange to watch your life walk by
Wishing it was
Wishing it was more like a fantasy
Where everyday surprises me
Wishing it was
[Post-Chorus]
Wishing it was
Wishing it was
[Verse 2]
This feeling won't last 'cause I cannot survive
I tell you I've been here before
When it's moving so fast
It's a matter of time
One of us walks out that door
[Pre-Chorus]
It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things
I always feel alive when the death bell rings
Now you come and you bring out the tears in me
[Chorus]
Pain never makes me cry, but happiness does
It's so strange to watch your life walk by
Wishing it was
Wishing it was more like a fantasy
Where everyday surprises me
Wishing it was
[Post-Chorus]
Wishing it was
Wishing it was
[Interlude]
Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me now
Wishing it was
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Give this some thought
And I'm sure you will know
This is the way it must be
Emotions will rise, emotions will flow
You bring out the tears in me
[Chorus]
Pain never makes me cry, but happiness does
It's so strange to watch your life walk by
Wishing it was
Wishing it was more like a fantasy
Where everyday surprises me
Wishing it was
[Outro]
Wishing it was
Wishing it was
Wishing it was
Wishing it was
Wishing it was…
