If only
by Kalah
If only I could stick needles in my eye
If only I could bleed and if I could cry
If only I could run and never be seen
If only I could hate and try to be mean
Why do I fail when all others do not?
Why do I stumble and lay there to rot?
Why do I cringe when others stand by?
Why do I fall and fail when I try?
If only I could sing the sweet song of life
If only I could bear the darkness in strife
If only I could reach high up in the sky
If only I could smile at night when I cry
Why am I living when all seems a lie?
Why am I happy and feel I could die?
Why am I trembling when I must be strong?
Why am I confused and all things seem wrong?
If only I could make everything alright
If only I could run so I need not fight
If only I could find the truth in the day
If only I could chase all the lies away
