[Verse 1]
I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top

For fifty million hands upraised and open toward the sky

[Verse 2]
I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me

I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on

I wish I was the verb to trust and never let you down
