If Only
“If only this world had shown me a little more mercy”
I would know what it means to be loved
I wouldn’t lock the door to my heart
I wouldn’t look into a mirror of shards
I would have the other piece to my parts

Just incase any careless soul means
to try and get the upper hand on me
I wouldn’t have all this anger
Why was I chosen for this role

Why do I break the things that was whole
Maybe I wouldn’t feel so afraid
Too afraid to greet other ears
Too afraid to even feel a cheer
Because thats vulnerabiltity to my fears
