change
I want to change
but I can't change...
why can't i change?
because I am the way I am
and unless I change
I can't change
the very thing that I want to change
is that which stops me from changing
you see I am not the man I want to be
I am wretched and dirty
I am foul and ugly
because I can't change
I see the things I want to do
I see the man I want to be
but I do the opposite
I do the one thing which keeps me from being that man
I can't change
but I want to change
I should be changed
isn't that what He said?
I should be dead now
not myself
yet here I am, alive and well
and I can't change
