If Only Could Be


If only, if only

I could see

If opening my eyes

Could set me free.

 

If only, if only

I could belong

If opening my mouth

Could release my song.

 

If only, if only

I could do

If I wasn't just someone

You look right through.

 

If I acted

Would you notice

Listen or view

Everything I was deperately trying to tell you.
