John Allen Poet I do not know?

Those Things I Should Have Said

I think about those things I should have said 
instead of doing those things I did 
I shouldn't have told you that I loved you so much 
because all it gave me was Lucifer's touch 
I hear them so much now that they pray for me to stop 
i should have given up back then before the tears could drop 
I should have told you that I would never be with you 
because that would have been the truth 
I should have said that there was nothing I could do 
I should have stolen back my youth 
I should have never cried on my shoulders 
when yours were always dry 
I should have said that I didn't love you 
Only if I could tell that lie 
If I had said that I hated you 
would the stars have fallen from the sky 
maybe if the stars had fallen 
maybe I wouldn't be ready to die
