Midas Touch

i wish it could be easy
to wake up and not have to fight
i wish it could be easy
to differentiate the dark and the light
i wish i could sit up
and take a stand
i wish i could fall down
and drown in a sea of land

too many thoughts are passing through this head of mine
and im searching, im looking for
any sign of the Divine

i wish it could be easy
to love one another
i wish it could be easy
to call someone like you sister or brother
i wish i could choke upon these
faulty wishes that i hold
i wish that i could turn around
and turn all your sorrows in to sun-kissed gold.
