If Only
If only the waters weren’t so deep
And if I could finally grow some teeth
Then maybe by now I’d be gone
Gone from this place of sorrow and bones
Blood left behind and kids all alone
This place where needles poke your skin
And try to cure what’s deep within
If only I could get some sleep
Then maybe I’ll finally leap
Far and high across the sky
I’d sour and cry and never die
No one would have to tell me lies
And as the sun peeks though the fluffy clouds
I’ll be in a place that’s never found
