I wish there was a stranger
sitting in this room
our eyes could meet each other's
for the first time
now it's just my family,
a bloodshot bride,
and a wasted groom.
Maybe there's an angel
laughing at us now
trying to tell us something
that we should've learned
we should have learned
Are you listening to me now?
I used to have this dream you know,
but i let it slip away,
traded it for something
i knew i could have
but never really wanted
Are you listening to me now?
I wish i could say something
instead of sitting here numb
i wish my mind, i wish my mind
was not such a loaded gun
I wish i was a stranger
sitting in this room
our eyes could meet each other's
for the first time
but now it's too late for all that.
