Artist/Band: We Came As Romans
Lyrics for Song: What I Wished I Never Had
Lyrics for Album: Understanding What We've Grown To Be [2011]



Don't catch me at the wrong time

Or you will feel my wrath

The one I wished I never had (wished I never had)



I need to rid myself of resentment

And every last bit of it

If I'm going to live up to the things I've written

I need to clear my mind of this anger

And all the rage that I've held near

If I'm going to live up to the words I've spoken



BUT I haven't YET

Letting go

Is how I can start to fight my way

Out of this hole I've dug

In this war against myself (this war against myself)

But I haven't yet (but I haven't yet)



Don't catch me at the wrong time or you will feel my wrath

The one I wished I never had (wished I never had)

I wish I never had this demon inside

I wish I knew how to cast it out

I wish I never had this demon inside

I wish I knew how to cast it out



But I fear it will never leave me (but I fear it will never leave me)



I need to rid myself of resentment

And every last bit of it

If I'm going to live up to the things I've written

I need to clear my mind of this anger

And all the rage that I've held near

If I'm going to live up to the words I've spoken



Letting go, Just let it go

I know, I know [x4]



I know I need to let go

Of everything that has

Ever made me think myself better

I'm not better than anyone else

Of anything that's filled me with anger

That I have taken out on everyone else (on everyone else)



These demons will never leave me

I can only find ways to not let them out

These demons will never leave me

But I control them, not the other way around...


What I Wished I Never Had

From We Came As Romans' 2011 album Understanding What We've Grown To Be, this track exemplifies the band's evolution into a heavier, more polished form of metalcore. The song features the group's signature blend of melodic hooks and aggressive riffs, showcasing their ability to balance emotional vulnerability with high-energy performance. Released during a pivotal era for the band, the recording reflects their growing technical proficiency and refined songwriting structure. It stands as a testament to their commitment to crafting dense, atmospheric tracks that define the modern metalcore sound, capturing the tension between personal introspection and cathartic release.
