[Verse 1]
I've made a mental note
That they will never know
Been on the clock for twenty years and they won't let me go
So I pretend the road
Will lead me to a home
That's for five seconds until I hit the danger zone
But those seconds are precious to me
They're just glimpses of when I'll be free
I get visions of who I could be
A little life is all I need
[Chorus]
I wish I had bones, I would leave you alone
So used to empty roads, it's all I've ever known
I wish I had limbs, but I can't let it go
I'd chase the sunset, until my muscles tore
I wish I had a voice so you could hear me out
And laugh at all the things you think I care about
I'd give you memories that you'd think about
When you're tryna sleep in that empty house
[Verse 2]
I wish I was you sometimes
To tell me it's alright
"You're worth more than just one ride"
"There's so much inside your mind"
"I'll try to give you a new life"
"But you were made to die"
I wish I had a choice
But they treat me like I'm just a toy
I know I could be a mama's boy
I know I could be daddy's girl
I would kill for fingerprints
Leave them on the cigarettes
I'd live my life with no regrets
I would have a face you can't forget
[Bridge: Spoken-Word]
I know there's so much out there
A life I've never had
The lips I haven't kissed
Flesh wounds I deserve
One day I'll find my way out
And see what color blue is like
One day
I'll know what it feels like to breathe
One day
I'll know what it feels like to exhale
[Chorus]
I wish I had bones, I would leave you alone
So used to empty roads, it's all I've ever known
I wish I had limbs, but I can't let it go
I'd chase the sunset, until my muscles tore
I wish I had a voice so you could hear me out
And laugh at all the things you think I care about
I'd give you memories that you'd think about
When you're tryna sleep in that empty house
