I wish.
I hear my phone
 Ringing
 Ringing
 Ringing
 In my pocket
 And I know its you
 But I wish I didn't.
 I wish I didn't know it was you.
 I wish it wasn't you.
 I wish I didn't know you.
 I answer anyway.
 "What?"
 "Its me."
 "I know."
 I wish I didn't.
 "I miss you."
 "..."
 "Im sorry."
 "..."
 "Are you there?"
 "Yeah."
 "You know I love you, right?" 
 I wish I could
 "You know you mean the world to me."
 I wish i didnt
 "Please."
 "...What do you want?"
 "I want you to talk to me."
 "..."
 "We always talked it out before this."
 I wish we hadn't.
 "..."
 "Fine. What do YOU want?"
 "..."
 "What do you want?"
 "..."
 "..."
 "I want you to never come near me again."
 I wish I had said it sooner.
 "..."
 "Okay".
 I wish I had understood what that meant.
 "Look up, then."
 I wish I hadn't.
 I wish you were stronger than that.
 I wish you were stronger than us.
 I wish that that building you were standing on wasn't so high.
 I wish that I had been there to catch you.
 I wish your body had stayed beautiful enough to have an open casket.
 I wish.
 ...
 
 But at the same time
 When I look at the fading bruises on my arms
 Shaped by your loving hands
 I wish I didn't.
 ...
 
 I wish I didn't wish for that.
