Born Bob Dylan - The Veronicas

[00:06.24]If I don't say anything it's wrong
[00:09.08]If I said it, it wouldn't come out right
[00:12.76]It's been keeping me up all night
[00:17.81]Half my life I've been told to shut up
[00:21.44]So how am I gonna open up?
[00:23.79]Wish you could just read my mind
[00:28.31]If I shared all of me, would you run away?
[00:31.27]If I sugar-coated what I had to say in poetry
[00:35.77]Would it make you stay?
[00:38.82]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[00:41.53]Had all the words to speak my feelings
[00:44.40]I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks
[00:46.93]And followed my heart, unafraid of the truth
[00:50.29]Even if I stood alone
[00:53.06]I didn't know how it was gonna go
[00:55.95]Even if the water was cold
[00:58.06]I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest
[01:01.68]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[01:13.14]
[01:15.21]They say either way you'll win
[01:17.79]If you feeling it, why you gotta hold it in?
[01:20.99]What is meant to be will be
[01:25.68]But all that wisdom doesn't help me now
[01:29.10]I'm scared and I gotta find out
[01:31.77]How to speak my mind without metaphors and rules and rhymes
[01:34.49]I'll still make you mine
[01:37.24]I hope you know what I mean when I'm acting mean
[01:39.95]'Cause I don't say what I mean when I'm caught in-between
[01:42.84]I'm afraid the real you is eluding me
[01:47.49]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[01:50.14]Had all the words to speak my feelings
[01:53.08]I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks
[01:55.52]And followed my heart, unafraid of the truth
[01:58.81]Even if I stood alone
[02:01.62]I didn't know how it was gonna go
[02:04.57]Even if the water was cold
[02:06.44]I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest
[02:10.22]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[02:16.62]
[02:17.79]With you I'm ripped right open at the seams
[02:21.75]I'm not that tough
[02:23.55]Wish you could hear the song inside of me
[02:27.38]But it's not enough
[02:29.64]And all the things I wanna say to you are written on my face
[02:39.26]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[02:41.45]Had all the words to speak my feelings
[02:44.46]I wish I stood up like Rosa Parks
[02:47.03]And followed my heart, unafraid of the truth
[02:50.28]Even if I stood alone
[02:52.96]I didn't know how it was gonna go
[02:55.94]Even if the water was cold
[02:57.94]I'd take a deep breath and get it off my chest
[03:01.63]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[03:03.76]Even if I stood alone
[03:05.84]Didn't know how it was gonna go
[03:08.54]Gotta get it off my chest
[03:11.42]And hope for the best
[03:13.46]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
[03:19.15]I wish I was born Bob Dylan
