The Veronicas - Born Bob Dylan Lyrics
If I don't say anything it's wrongIf I said it, it wouldn't come out rightIt's been keeping me up all nightHalf my life I've been told to shut upSo how am I gonna open up?Wish you could just read my mindIf I shared all of me, would you run away?If I sugar-coated what I had to say in poetryWould it make you stay?I wish I was born Bob DylanHad all the words to speak my feelingsI wish I stood up like Rosa ParksAnd followed my heart, unafraid of the truthEven if I stood aloneI didn't know how it was gonna goEven if the water was coldI'd take a deep breath and get it off my chestI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanThey say either way you'll winIf you feeling it, why you gotta hold it in?What is meant to be will beBut all that wisdom doesn't help me nowI'm scared and I gotta find outHow to speak my mind without metaphors and rules and rhymesI'll still make you mineI hope you know what I mean when I'm acting mean'Cause I don't say what I mean when I'm caught in-betweenI'm afraid the real you is eluding meI wish I was born Bob DylanHad all the words to speak my feelingsI wish I stood up like Rosa ParksAnd followed my heart, unafraid of the truthEven if I stood aloneI didn't know how it was gonna goEven if the water was coldI'd take a deep breath and get it off my chestI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanWith you I'm ripped right open at the seamsI'm not that toughWish you could hear the song inside of meBut it's not enoughAnd all the things I wanna say to you are written on my faceI wish I was born Bob DylanHad all the words to speak my feelingsI wish I stood up like Rosa ParksAnd followed my heart, unafraid of the truthEven if I stood aloneI didn't know how it was gonna goEven if the water was coldI'd take a deep breath and get it off my chestI wish I was born Bob DylanEven if I stood aloneDidn't know how it was gonna goGotta get it off my chestAnd hope for the bestI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob DylanI wish I was born Bob Dylan
