I just carry on
I don't hold on
As if I never really hurt
I manage to look ahead
Even as I ward off
Demons from the past
I wish
I weren't so smart
To understand
Life is bigger
Bigger than you and me
I wish
I weren't so loved
To feel
Life is about
People who stood by me
Not who let me down
I wish
I weren't so rational
To realize
Life has times
One has to let go
Move along
I wish
I weren't so humane
To err
To regret
To rage
Yes
There are debts in life
One has to pay
There are nightmares
To keep one awake
If only I could turn back times
When I said too much
And when I didn't say enough
laughter ripples through
Smiles abound
No one complains
Oh but how I pray
Skies turn gray
Coz when pain becomes unbearable
And tears run free
I would blame it on the rain
Ah
So much for a complicated heart
