Sometimes it can be difficult to show yourself on paper, especially when you don't really even know what counts as genuine... This is what I was thinking while writing this.

lyrics

I wish I knew how to write poetry,
without hiding the words so you can't see them.
I wish I knew how to write poetry,
without dressing up so I don't look like me.
I want you, I want you to see,.
yeah I want you, I want you to see me.

I wish I knew how to write a tune,
yeah I wish I knew how to decorate my room,
yeah I wish I knew how to write a tune,
Without sounding like I'm from the moon.
Cuz I'm not, I'm from your backyard.
Cuz I'm not, I've been here from the start.
Oh oh, I've been here from the start.
Oh oh, I've been here from the start.

I wish I knew how to talk to you,
I wish I knew how to make my words do
what I want them to do, when I want them to.
When I want them to, when I want them to, when I want them to.
Oh oh, When I want them to.
Oh oh, when I want them to.

I wish I knew how to write poetry,
without hiding my words so you can't see them.
I wish I knew how to write poetry,
without dressing up so I don't look like me.
I want you, I want you to see,.
yeah I want you, I want you to see me.
Oh oh, I want you to see me.
Oh oh, I want you to see me.
