If you knew how many nights I stayed awake
Writing words I never had the strength to say
If you knew how many times I called your name
But let the silence take the sound away
Would it have changed the way you walked away?
Or was it always meant to be this way?
If you knew how much I loved you still
Would you have stayed, or left me still?
If you knew the weight of what we lost
Would it have mattered, or was it all dust?
I trace the letters, but they never leave my lips
Every sentence fades before it even fits
Regret’s a burden, heavy on my chest
If I spoke my heart, would you have left?
Guess I'll never know, it's too late now
The words unsaid, they still scream loud
If you knew... would it matter now?
Writing words I never had the strength to say
If you knew how many times I called your name
But let the silence take the sound away
Would it have changed the way you walked away?
Or was it always meant to be this way?
If you knew how much I loved you still
Would you have stayed, or left me still?
If you knew the weight of what we lost
Would it have mattered, or was it all dust?
I trace the letters, but they never leave my lips
Every sentence fades before it even fits
Regret’s a burden, heavy on my chest
If I spoke my heart, would you have left?
Guess I'll never know, it's too late now
The words unsaid, they still scream loud
If you knew... would it matter now?
