I Wish I Could lyrics

This burning had lost control And gideon robbed my soul and so Here is the human joke I failed I failed I failed you Here in this troubled mind Where fortunes may turn the tide and so By clichés I'm paralysed I failed I failed I failed I failed I failed you I failed you I wish I could I'd be the guardian of morality I should But now my heart must face reality And visited by inspiration Visited by indignation again Battling by the sword A fear of the spoken word and so Best grab your crown and turn I failed I failed I failed you So loathed to speak my name And grow wretched by the day and so It's better to die than to be enslaved I failed I failed I failed I failed I failed you I failed you I wish I could I'd be the guardian of morality I should But now my heart must face reality And visited by inspiration Visited by indignation again I wish I could I would eliminate this sense of longing Do I dare not drown in what I am becoming Promises hove been rejected My beliefs have been fragmented again
