If Only You Knew

by Lindsey   May 1, 2005


If you only knew why I cry
Maybe then you would have tried
To give me a chance
If you only knew what I saw each day
Maybe you would have seen
Me in a different way
If you only knew what it felt like to lose everything
Maybe you wouldn’t have taken
Me for granted
If only you knew what it was like to be put down each day
Maybe you would have given me a break
If only you knew what it was like to be left to die
On the side of the road
Maybe you would stop and think
About how you make everyone else feel
And if you only knew what it was like to wish you would just die
Maybe you would have stopped me from
Pulling the trigger the night I committed suicide
