I wish I could see
I wish it was black and white
So it was easy for me
To figure it out and find who I should be

But I'm trapped in my skin
Layer by layer locked out from within
And it's hard to begin
When all I think is right
Is who I've never been

Gonna hold it against me
My body my mind

I wish it was me
I wish all the stars lined up so
It was easy to see
That heaven is earth and it starts with me

But I'm trapped in my skin
Layer by layer locked out from within
And it's hard to begin
When all I think is right
Is who I've never been

Gonna hold it against me
My body my mind

My mind has gone
As my body carries on
You see it happen
You say that nothing matters
It's easy for you to say

You're not trapped in my skin
Layer by layer locked out from within
And it's hard to begin
When all I think is right
Is who I've never been

Gonna hold it against me
My body my mind
