Wish List Lyrics

(Lyrics/Music - E. Vedder) 
  
I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off 
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on 
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hang on 
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top 
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds 
Or fifty million hands up raised and opened toward the sky 

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me 
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me 
I wish I was a messenger and all the news is good 
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood 

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun 
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on 
I wish I was the pedal break that you depended on 
I wish I was the verb to trust and never let you down

(Fades Out)
I wish I was the radio song, the one that you couldn't turn up
