What if - Lyrics
Chorus
We can never let the past, steal our only present.
We live by time and this gift is never mentioned.
I can see the future, I can almost reach it out
I?m ready and I'm sure, I just need to know how.
Verse 1
Mistakes upon mistakes, how much more do I need?
I brake and I make, the faith when I believe.
Mistakes upon mistakes, hate got ripped out of these lips
But where?s the point in wasting words then thinking ?what if?
?Cause every second, minute and every hour,
I spent hoping and praying on that wishful tower...
I couldn't see my foremost precious gift,
Time can't fix the words we spit when they shouldn?t exist.
I shouldn't have missed, kissed with a curse, or worse...
I could have picked and kicked while they were down in the dirt.
what posesses a persons mind,
as if control comes from another or others dimensioned lie?
I'm searchin' for the answers but I don't know why
Still I just gotta learn to live me life, 'Cause what's done is done... right?
Chorus
We can never let the past, steal our only present.
We live by time and this gift is never mentioned.
I can see the future, I can almost reach it out
I?m ready and I'm sure, I just need to know how.
Verse 2
I poisoned, I cursed, but pain was never heard
?Cause hurt is silenced by assault within the words
I realised, when flames burnt through eyes of the victims
Why play these games that cause amber flames?
... if no one ever wins.
If I should learn after I mistake, How many more times until I finally wake?
To take these feelings into account...?Cause emotions just don?t speak a sound.
Blindness, clueless, lying, deception and deceit
Wideness, forgiveness, smiling, then progression onto our feet
We wrong, we right, in day and at night, In song in sight, we should learn all this in time.
I should never have missed, or kissed with a curse, and what's worse...
I could have picked and kicked while they were down in the dirt.
what posesses a persons mind?
as if control comes from another or others dimensioned lie?
I'm searchin' for the answers but I don't know why
Still I just gotta learn to live me life, 'Cause what's done is done... right?
Chorus
We can never let the past, steal our only present.
We live by time and this gift is never mentioned.
I can see the future, I can almost reach it out
I?m ready and sure, that I know the way around.
