The bigger I wanted the earth to be,
the smaller it became

I wanted to see new things, 
but the more I saw 
the more it was all the the same

I wanted people to be different somewhere else
But they never were

I wanted Gods to be more true, more real, more loving, but they were always what people made them
And people always made gods like themselves

I wanted the truth to be bendable
I wanted the air to be smooth

I wanted the water to be breathable 
I wanted reality to let me make it move 

I wanted all people to be free
All men, all women, all children
I wanted a planetary party 

I wanted it all
In exchange for all of me
I was willing to give everything
