An If and a Lie
An If and A Lie
I cant see without being blinded
Cant walk down on my knees
I can respond without a question,
So…think before you speak
I cant live-anymore
I cant give-anymore
No matter the measure
No matter the score
There will never be a life without an if and a lie
I cant learn if nothing ever happens
One learned mistake can take anyone captive
I cant fly without being grounded
I will never see the view from above
I cant fight-anymore
I cant write-anymore
If every life was an if and a lie
No life is lived without an if and a lie
