If
And If my world were to fall apart, my soul to shred in shards
I would fly my scars, I would fly my scars.
And if my life was all a dream, I'd miss reality
I'd miss the truth in the world, I'd miss the hard parts
And if life, my life had a purpose. A reason why I'm always nervous,
Why I'm shaking this fear of taking my last breath on the surface
And if my life had a plan, I'd probably need a map
With an X mark next to the arrows for a helping hand.
If everything I needed came to me, with these two hands I'd parts the seas
to find myself breathing in the formaldahyde
And swallowing matches for fun.
I would find a thrill written in the sky, take chances every day I'm alive.
Tear apart every lie, tear and cry
To find myself on the other side.
And if you stare into my eyes, if you looked past my disguise
And if you really heard me, listened as days go by I'm sure you'd find
The devil is not where my mind resides.And if you'd just watch and hide.
And if you'd observe the world around you,Followed every sound and clue.
You'd find I was right in all my wounds.But, "If" only gets me so far...
I would fly my scars, I would fly my scars.
And if my life was all a dream, I'd miss reality
I'd miss the truth in the world, I'd miss the hard parts
And if life, my life had a purpose. A reason why I'm always nervous,
Why I'm shaking this fear of taking my last breath on the surface
And if my life had a plan, I'd probably need a map
With an X mark next to the arrows for a helping hand.
If everything I needed came to me, with these two hands I'd parts the seas
to find myself breathing in the formaldahyde
And swallowing matches for fun.
I would find a thrill written in the sky, take chances every day I'm alive.
Tear apart every lie, tear and cry
To find myself on the other side.
And if you stare into my eyes, if you looked past my disguise
And if you really heard me, listened as days go by I'm sure you'd find
The devil is not where my mind resides.And if you'd just watch and hide.
And if you'd observe the world around you,Followed every sound and clue.
You'd find I was right in all my wounds.But, "If" only gets me so far...
