Sometimes

Sometimes I hate myself

Sometimes I can't feel

Sometimes I feel wrong

Sometimes I am steel

Sometimes I just want to cry

But all that comes is strangled and dry

I wanted to fly a kite so I bought a kite

I wanted to sail a boat so I bought a boat

I wanted to rule the world so I bought the world

But all these things didn't belong to me

They belonged to wind, earth and sea

I didn't know what to do

So I let them sit and yellow and fray

I wanted everything to be okay

But all I did was sit and stay
