What If Lyrics

It starts with anything

A glance thrown out across the room

I'd give you everything

The stars align it's just for you

Saw the seat across

And I fall and stumble

Choking on my breath

As I start to mumble

Laughing at my acts

You start to fall too

I start to lose it

I couldn't choose it

So risk it all to play it safe

Keep your heart at the edge of a blade

Bet your life on this twisted game

Let your soul go down in flames

If it means that much to you

I won't try to change your point of view

Let yourself succumb to self destruction

A false pretense thoughts are leaving

Wind in the room as my pulse slows its beating

Piercing in my ears

Oh my god are they bleeding?

Stop this nonsense

I thought we stopped this

Alligator tears you try to fluster

Pain in my neck makes my heart start to flutter

Feel your voice at night when you start to mutter

I couldn't choose it I start to lose it

All won't play it safe

Swear our luck goes down in spades

I bet our life won't ever drain

A force in bursting flames

And it means so much to you

That I try to see your point of view

We let ourselves suffer for nothing

It's just poetic justice

I thought you'd know where this would go

Couldn't expect a straight answer

Drifting apart and numb from the start

Didn't expect I'd see that glance though

This was something I didn't do

Don't know how to get it through to you

Didn't do this for nothing

Despite it all you stayed the same

Forged your name on the end of the blade

I bet my life on this twisted game

Let my soul go down in flames

Didn't mean that much to me

Through my selfishness it set me free

I let myself succumb to reduction

Of all the pain and all the gains I could have fostered

And all the sights and all the lights I could have lust for
