All I Wanna Be

China Drum

There's a time when I wish there were no words for it

There's a moment when I think it's gone too far

When I couldn't get round to even think of it

I wish I hadn't taken this so far



But you said it

I never wanted to hear it

You knew I couldn't bear it

But still you kept on sharing it

I've got a fortified right to fear it

'Cause I know this time you mean it

If you ever place yourself near me

It's gonna rip my head apart



Cause, it's all I wanna be I realise I'm nowhere near it

It's all I wanna be but I still grab my chance

It's all I wanna see I see the gap but I won't clear it

It's all I wanna take it's in my reach but I can't feel it



It's never gonna be that way

Cause everytime I'll do it my own way



Today I took a look at my possessions

Piled up in a room I didn't know

This morning I woke up with no discretion

I wish you hadn't taken it so far



But I said it

I wanted you to hear it

You took it in your stride

And now you're disappearing



Cause, it's all I wanna be I realise I'm nowhere near it

It's all I wanna be but I still grab my chance

It's all I wanna see I see the gap but I won't clear it

It's all I wanna take it's in my reach but I can't feel it



It's never gonna be the same

It's never gonna be that way

There's nothing I could ever say

'Cause every time I'll do it my own way

I've got a fortified right to fear it

'Cause I know this time I mean it

If I ever place myself near you

It's gonna rip my head apart



Cause, it's all I wanna be I realise I'm nowhere near it

It's all I wanna be but I still grab my chance

It's all I wanna see I see the gap but I won't clear it

It's all I wanna take it's in my reach but I can't feel it



It's never gonna be that way

It's never gonna be the same
