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,

I wish I was the evidence

I wish I was the grounds for fifty million hands upraised, and opened toward the sky.

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me.

I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

I wish I was a messenger, and all the news was good.

I wish I was the full moon shining off a camaro's hood.

I wish I was an alien, at home behind the sun,

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

I wish I was the pedal break that you depended on.

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

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up,

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish,

I guess it never stops.
