I wish that I could be a robot,
Make me out of metal or of stone
Make me into a statue
That way when you hurt me,
I don't feel it, I'll never feel alone.
Take this heart made of glass
Mold it and turn into gold,
Silver or something hard
That will last.
I wish I was less than human
So this pain wasn't all
consumin'.
I don't want to miss the friend
who stood beside me
I don't want to remember
the times we shared.
I don't want to feel lost forever
I don't want to be the only one
Who cares.
It wasn't my choice to say good-bye
It wasn't me who broke my heart
Who made rivers pour from my eyes.
I'm still standing where you left me,
Not sure to go right or left,
I feel lost here just waiting,
Hoping and praying I can forget.
My shadow has been ripped from me
Like the heart from my chest.
The one constant in my life
Disappeared, and I couldn't
Even put up a fight.
You chose nothing over me
Do you see?
You chose NOTHING
And here I stand
I wish that I could be a statue
Made of metal or of stone,
Turn my heart hard as rock
So i don't think about you.
So i won't feel every second
I have to breathe here without you.
I wish that I could be a robot,
The Tin man had it pretty good.
I want to be numb,
I don't want to live through what
you have done.
But even if i were a statue,
I'd stand here waiting
For you.
