If Only
Class is in session
My name is called for attendance
All of a sudden I start to slightly cry
I realize everyone's watching me
Die inside
Talking aloud my dearest friend says
Why what is the matter?
I say my mom is no longer here
I need to be gone
Can't finish my life without parents by my side
What should I do?
End it with a knife?
Start over and tell a lie?
I blame myself everyday
Fifteen years of struggle
Now as a sixteen year old
Past-life is the monster I hide
I leave it behind as I write
I can't let life push me by
If I let it push me along
My life wouldn't last too long
Maybe just maybe
I can travel back in time
Change all mistakes
In a flash
Return to a life I wish I had
Without parents is depressing
Knowing I'm loved in some sort of way
Takes my life away
If only I can travel back in time
Just to want that happy life
