I wanted it all
I wanted him to call
I wanted more than i could take
I wanted to stop shaking
I wanted this night to come
But i did not want it to begin.

I wanted to run
I wanted to fly
I wanted to land far up in the sky
I wanted to feel the air on my face
But i was scared to take that first step.

I wanted to laugh
I wanted to cry
I wanted to finally get my life started
But, once again, i stepped back last second.

I wanted to feel
I wanted to care
But i was scared of getting hurt.

I wanted to die,
But i was too afraid of the knife.

I wanted a lot... But i'm too scared to try
