I'm disguising all my whining

With three chords and 4/4 timing

Line by line I realize

I'm the same I was when I was five

I'll admit to narcissism

If it keeps me out of prison

The situation's tragic

'Cause I can break your heart but not these habits



I wish I was a little more confident

I wish I had a little more of the it

Factor they say you need

To amount to anything



I wish I rocked a little harder

Pushed the line a little farther

I wish that I was okay being me

I wish I burned a little brighter

Could make my heart a little lighter

I wish I wouldn't wish myself away



If I can hide, I'll victimize me

With a thousand little lies

I'll wrap my version of the truth

Around a finger in my mind

When I doubt, I'll write my confidence

A check I know will bounce

And it serves me right

For not cleaning up after my mind



I wish I was a little more confident

I wish I had a little more of the it

Factor they say you need

To amount to anything



I wish I rocked a little harder

Pushed the line a little farther

I wish that I was okay being me

I wish I burned a little brighter

Could make my heart a little lighter

I wish I wouldn't wish myself away



I wish a was a little more punk than pop

A little less cotton candy rock

And it's about time that I admit

I wish I wrote better songs than this

A little more hanging with my friends

A little less stressing out again

A little less Michael fracking Bay

A little more point to my story



I wish I rocked a little harder

Pushed the line a little farther

I wish I wouldn't wish myself away

I wish I burned a little brighter

Could make my heart a little lighter

I wish I wouldn't wish myself away

I wish I wouldn't wish myself away
