If Only

from yonder by Tin Star Orphans

lyrics

I wanna drown beneath the sea that separates our swollen feet. There's no union left to speak of. I guess you're now one of them, the type that drinks with foreign men. Is it so easy to forget?

You are so lonely, my friend. If only I could break myself in two. So one's with you. To cut the noose when you refuse the simple task to lose the mask you hide behind when things don't last.

I'd spend all eternity with you pinned under my knees. If I only knew it would keep you from stepping out of the line that guarantees you home on time. Are you ever coming back?

You are so lonely, my friend. If only I could be the one to ease your broken knees that you received for your belief that no one needs to die for freedom and a peace we'll never see. Just close your eyes and think of me. Close your eyes and there I'll be.
