Everything I try holding up keeps on bringing me down
I wanna have it all together but I'm freaking out
I'm living in a world where everybody's running like hell
While heaven is standing still
But when I close my eyes
I see a different side
I'm singing
What if I love till my heart gets broken
What if I'm old but I never get sorted out
What if I try and it's still not working
What if I die without ever learning how to live
Every time I try to do right it ends up proving me wrong
I'm starring at my good intensions like a prison wall
I'm living in a world where everybody's buying what sells
Like lambs being fed by wolves
Like lambs being led by fools
But when I close my eyes
I see a different side
I'm singing
What if I love till my heart gets broken
What if I'm old but I never get sorted out
What if I try and it's still not working
What if I die without ever learning how to live
You have always been the best of me
You will always love the rest of me
Will I ever learn to love, the way I've been loved?
Will I ever learn to love?
Will I love?
