Lyrics
I Wish I Could Do Something
There's nothing I can do
To make you see yourself
The way that I see you
You say there's nothing I can do
But I can't do nothing at all
I can't do nothing that's for sure
And sit and see you struggling
Sit and see you suffering
Sit and see you get so overwhelmed
I wish I could do something
Anything to stop you hurting
Anything to help
I wish I could do something
Anything to stop you punishing yourself
It simply isn't true
That you're not good enough
at all the things you do
It simply isn't true
So I can't say nothing at all
I can't say nothing that's for sure
Sit and see you ruminate
See you get in such a state
Sit and see you getting so overwhelmed
I wish I could do something
Anything to stop you hurting
Anything to help
I wish I could do something
Anything to stop you turning on yourself
Something, Anything
Something, Anything
Something, Anything
Anything
