What if I died?
I know you would cry
But what would you regret?
Something you never said?
Or opportunities you missed?
The way you were always teased
And never had anything?
How I was always slipping
Away from your arms
Away like the clouds?
On second thought I believe
With time you would forget me
But if I'm alive
I'm always on your mind
Don't worry I won't kill myself
It's not even in my head
I've thought about it many times
And by now I've realised
I wouldn't see what'd be left of me
But that'd be all I'd need
Won't waste my energy
But what if

What if I loved you?
What if I died?
What would you pursue?
Would it change your life?

What if I loved you?
You'd be hurt even more
What if I told you?
It would all be lost
I can't tell you the truth
You should never know
It's the worst way to lose you
But why should we go on?
I don't believe you mean it
When you say I'm sweet
I can make you feel
Like you're in love with me
But time will tell and only time
Will tell if what you thought was right
And now forever I will claim
That I've never even cared
I'll act a cutie, but never be yours
I'll hide my weak sides, you won't know
Don't ask me what if
Don't do that please
What if

What if I loved you?
What if I died?
What would you pursue?
Would it change your life?
this was started, years ago, as lyrics for some future song, but it never became one - it just doesn't fit into melody, though it does have some flow. Either way, started at a time in my life when I was losing everything I had and had reasons to be really happy at the same time. I began writing it for a certain person, then it could be applied to several others, those who loved me, who thought they loved me, who cared for me, who were worried about me, not only then, but ever since. It's not dedicated to anyone in particular but to all who care. Thanks for all the positive feelings, lots of love.
