If You Were Me
If you were me and I were you,
We’d know what we were going through,
For we can never quite explain
Our joys, our sorrows or our pain.
Those close to us will empathize
And try to see things through our eyes,
Yet even then, they will not know
How high or low our moods may go.
It isn’t like we try to hide
The feelings bubbling inside,
But we could only truly see
If I were you and you were me.
