I Wish
Vision Talk Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Put myself upon a ride
Moments on the other side
Baby, you could ring by bell
Tomorrow I know I'll be in hell

Give me fire I'll burn your life
I wish you were someone special
I could just resist and move on with my life

I wish you were someone special

Nothing makes my world go round
Analyzing every sound
Heavy clouds I'll be the clown
Maybe you like it when I'm down

Give me fire I'll burn your life
I wish you were someone special
I could just resist and move on with my life
I wish you were someone special

I wish you were someone special

Oh, I wish you were someone special

Give me fire I'll burn your life
I wish you were someone special
I could just resist and move on with my life
I wish you were someone special

Give me fire I'll burn your life
I wish you were someone special

I could just resist and move on with my life
I wish you were someone special

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Vision Talk's "I Wish" convey the intense emotions of someone who is struggling to move on from a past lover who they wish was "someone special." The song starts with the singer taking a ride to distance themselves from their current emotions and find some clarity. However, they know that this temporary reprieve from their feelings will be short-lived, and they'll soon be back in the throes of heartache - "Tomorrow I know I'll be in hell."

The chorus repeats the central theme of the song, with the singer expressing a wish that their ex could have been someone special to them, someone they could have resisted and moved on from. The verses describe how the singer is unable to shake off memories of the past relationship and is caught up in analyzing every sound and gesture around them. They also seem resigned to the fact that their ex may have enjoyed seeing them in a state of emotional distress - "Maybe you like it when I'm down."

Overall, "I Wish" is a poignant portrayal of the kind of emotional turmoil that many people go through after a relationship ends. The lyrics express feelings of regret, longing, and pain while the upbeat music somewhat contradicts the themes of the song.
