Did You Wish...

did you wish you were the hero?
the superman, the star?
did you get your wish now?
or did your dreams fall to the ground?

i am nothing less than what i am
but i can still be all the more
confusing phrases that scream their way on the radio
seem to jump out at me in my very own words
and everything that i had found a place for
has fallen apart, my world fell to the ground
but He was still there, and the only stable rock

did you wish you were the hero?
the superman, the star?
did you get your wish now?
or did your dreams fall to the ground?

black ink on white paper
blue lines to guide my words
it all makes sense now - the jumble and mess
even through the breaking hurt
but you're not the only reason
that all i knew fell to the ground
He gave me reason for a life larger than myself

did you wish you were the hero?
the superman, the star?
did you get your wish now?
or did your dreams fall to the ground?

all that i could do has been forgotten in time
and whispers of words have found their way into my mind
and the longer the phrases, explainations wind
the better i feel in knowing who i am
because i wasn't being me, so i had to come back
my journey home to see Him face to face
was pushed aside for something not enough

did you wish you were the hero?
the superman, the star?
did you get your wish now?
or did your dreams fall to the ground?
