This Wish (Demo) - Julia Michaels

Isn't truth supposed to set you free

Well why do I feel so weighed down by it

If I could show them everything I've seen

Open their eyes to all the lies then

Would they change their minds like I did

But when I speak they tell me sit down

But how can I when I've already started runnin'

Oh this is where we've been but it's not where we belong

And I may be young but I know I'm not wrong

So I look up at the stars to guide me

And throw caution to every warning sign

If knowing what it could be is what drives me

Then let me be the first to stand in line

So I make this wish

To have something more for us than this

So I make this wish

To have something more for us than this

Hey yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah yeah ah ah

More than this oh-ah

I never knew I needed room to grow

Yeah I did what I was told when someone told me no

Now I've got all of this freedom in my bones

But I've still got the lid on so it doesn't overflow

'Cause I've got reservations and hesitations

On where I should even begin

I'm past dipping my toes in

But I'm not no I'm not past diving in

If I could just be pointed in any given direction

On where to go and what to do

My legs are shaking but my head's held high

The way you always taught me to

So I look up at the stars to guide me

And throw caution to every warning sign

I'm sure there will be challenges that find me

But I can take them on one at a time

So I make this wish

To have something more for us than this

So I make this wish

To have something more for us than this

Hey yeah yeah yeah

So I make this wish

Hey yeah yeah yeah ah ah

To have something more

More than this oh-ah

So I make this wish

To have something more for us than this
