I wish I could watch people's lives
From beginning to the end
Find all their secrets and lies
And see what's left to mend.
I wish I could lurk in dark corners
Corners of their minds and hearts...
Find all their buttons to push
Find peices of life ripped apart.
I want to find the monsters
Monsters in dark places
I want to see the scary collage
Of all the old faces.
I wish I could see intentions
Read minds and know
Just what it means
What they do only for show
I want to face their evils
I want to fight their pain
I want to light the darkness
I want to stop the rain.
