I want to be
Something

I want to be someone's
Something

I want to be someone's
Anchor

To pick them up
Once they've fallen down

I want to be
The one that makes some smile

Or be the comfort
When They cry

I want to be the
Sunrise

And the 
Stars in the Sky

I want to be able
To feel

Like I'm 
Flying High

But I'm not that

Why am I not something?

Why am I not someone's
Something?

I want to be
Something

I want to be someone's
Something
