Jeffrey Gaines Wish It Away Lyrics

It started off small

I never thought it would grow

It must have climbed aboard while I was sleeping

You know

Now I don't feel the same

My vision doesn't match my name

And all this time I thought I had it under control

Now I can't resist the temptation

And it calls to me each and every hour

And I'm faced with the failure of me

And I just ain't got the power

To make it go away

Wish I could wish it away

I was so blind to think

This never could happen to me

And I didn't really notice

'Cause it happened so gradually

Now I know that I've been telling me lies

It's getting harder and harder to disguise

I've gone and become the man I said I'd never be Now I know I must change

But where should I start

There's so much work that has to be done

I've been bitter and mean

Got a low self esteem

And I'm reaching out to anyone

To make it go away

Wish I could wish it away

Wish I could make it go away

Wish I could wish it way

I've got to find a way today

To turn my condition around

Exchange the bad for the good

And be stepping on bright new ground

Take control of my life before it's too late

Before I seal my fate

I've got to make it go away

Wish I could wish it away

Wish I could make it go away

Wish I could wish it way
