I Wish

I wish I could find

The way to be

What is this design

That life should run away from me?

Is it just the over-worry of an anxious mind

To avail itself of fretfulness?

Or is it the world and all its little lies

That arouse this feeling?

I can't seem to find

What's missing from my mind

Please pardon me my impropriety

But I refuse to sit here quietly

While this weight of social piety

Paves the way for my anxiety, ooh
