Harem Scarem - Sometimes I Wish lyrics

(Hess/Lesperance)

Like Jesus nailed to the cross

We're all hanging prey

To the demons that we face

'Til our dying day

Now how long can I suffer defeat

Like a dog that's been tied up and chained

In a world that needs someone to hate

Sometimes I wish I wasn't born

Sometimes I wish I were everything

That I thought I could be in my demented dreams

Sometimes I wish I wasn't born

Sometimes I wish I were everything

The perfect holy poster boy for vanity

How dignified we first fall into this maze

And it dulls the mind thinking of ways that I will sustain

They devour your piece of the dream

Like a cancer that's eating away

While the vultures fly in for the feast
