There are some who don’t even need to try
Born with a warm heart
A twinkle in their eye
Glitter in their words
Perfume in their breath
Soul of sunshine and lilac pastel skies

You will find no such shimmering in here
Oh, there’s a wish for some that’s shovelled down by fear
Am I happy or just hopeful?
Confident or boastful?
Do people smile holding back a sneer?

Sometime I wish that I could be
A kinder better of me
For all
Sometimes I wish that I could be
Someone who isn’t me
At all

So off you go perform your social dance
Outstretched opinions and a flexible stance
Pirouette for show
But never let them know
That really you’re just begging for a chance

Sometime I wish that I could be
A kinder better of me
For all
Sometimes I wish that I could be
Someone who isn’t me
At all

Can someone please tell me how it feels
To say the perfect words a model of appeal
Should I spill secrets inside
Or should I just hide?
I’ll never be okay to reveal

Sometime I wish that I could be
A kinder better of me
For all
Sometimes I wish that I could be
Someone who isn’t me
At all
