if only i

 

if only i could feel something

as i look into your eyes and watch you die

something more than nothing nothing

wish that i could feel something

my oh my

as you die

 

when i do so overwhelming

it all comes back i cannot help it

my oh my

when i finally reach my hand out

it's too late it's all destroyed

all destroyed by my hand

 

so i will reach for nothing at all

i will not answer love's soft call

i will walk away

turn aside

 

no i'll still smile frozen inside

i will not open up my eyes

to watch them fade

the flowers die

 

something come to me

please open me up

how i want to cry

i want to cry

i will breathe in up the fire

i'll drink it down

it is the thing that makes me die

and it makes me cry

 

only if ismile

only if iopen up my arms

only if i cry

only if i open up my heart

 

maybe then i'd feel something

as i look into your eyes

to watch you die

my oh my

only if i lose control

i did it then

and oh oh oh

she ran away

asleep today

 

open up to bitter rage

 a bird trapped in a little cage

will fly away

into the sky

my oh my

 

and then the feeling and then a cry

and then a run and then a hide

again i die

to feel nothing

 

oh today a tear i cried

its fallen from my eye

for you

i love you true

oh tonight i lived

as tonight i died

in your arms

i dreamed

my sweetest she

 

 

only if he won't hide

only if she's inside

in my arms

only if i

would stop dying

when we meet

forever we could be

like a dream

 

 

never felt so strong does he

as when inside the heart of she

so strong- a fear

so strong so near

run away inside

won't come out

run away and hide

dance about

peek-a-boo

i play with you

afraid to say

"hello- how i love you true

i love you baby yes i do

oh how i cry

how i cry

opened up
