if only

(Verse 1) If I didn’t let you go I’d be choking on your smoke If you knew how to be real You wouldn’t fake the way you feel If you took your mask off slow If your “love” wasn’t for show If you didn’t touch and run Then swear to God I was the one You held my hand, you crossed your heart Then crossed my name out in the dark (Pre-Chorus) You said “forever” with a loaded tongue I was your truth until you found another one (Chorus) Would you still be by my side If I wasn’t easy to break? Would you still look in my eyes If your lies had a face? You loved the fall, not the fight You loved the dark, not the light You said my name like a drug Then quit me cold overnight (Verse 2) If I only knew your game I’d have burned every frame Every kiss you ever faked Every promise you delayed You say “trust me” like a threat Like I’m the one with the regrets You keep my ghost in your phone Just to prove you’re not alone You don’t miss me, you miss control You miss the girl you used to own (Pre-Chorus 2) You call it love, I call it theft You took the best of me and left (Chorus) Would you still be by my side If I wasn’t easy to break? Would you still look in my eyes If your lies had a face? You loved the fall, not the fight You loved the dark, not the light You said my name like a drug Then quit me cold overnight (Bridge) If only you were brave enough to stay If only I was dumb enough to wait If only truth was something you could use But you only love the excuse (Break – half time, 4 bars) I loved you loud You loved the chase We’re not the same (Final Chorus) Would you still be by my side? No… you run when it’s real Would you still call this love If you felt what I feel? You loved the fall, not the fight You loved the thrill, not the right Say my name if you want I already changed my life (Outro – short) If only… You were honest.
