From Album : Savage (2017)
If I Said
If I said I was a painter
Would you love and comfort me
If I said I was a soldier
Would you cry a tear for me
If I said I was a poet
Would you share your hopes with me
If I said I was a dreamer
Would you share your life with me
If I asked you for forgiveness
Would you smile and wonder why
Would you say that you believed me
Or would it all fall down
Would it all fall down
Is it over?
Is it over now?
If I said I was a liar
Would you lose your faith in me
If I said I was mistaken
Would you share the blame with me
If I said I was a memory
Would you still remember me
If I said I was a warning
Would you shy away from me
If I asked you for forgiveness
Would you turn your face away
Would you say I broke your heart
And would it all fall down
Would it all fall down
Is it over?
Is it over now?
When a new tear falls
When I hear you cry softly
I would give the world
To change the past
And, when you walked away
And I saw what I was losing
And only me to blame
I wondered why, why, why
So it all comes back to haunt me
Like a song that sings your name
And it burns here to remind me
That it all comes back as pain
When I asked you for forgiveness
And the words drifted away
I watched them float in empty silence
As it all fell down
As it all fell down
It was over
It was over then
