If I Were U
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(The chance to live your life)
(The chance to live your life)
You live your life in desperation
I tried but could not break your will
Regret and endless conversation
It hurts to see you standing still
But if you had the chance to live your life again
Would you squander your beauty and intelligence
Take a look in the mirror now cause every word is true
I'd be afraid if I were U
If I were U
You pass the blame to those around you
Look in the mirror, face the truth
I tried to help, I tried to ground you
You had such beauty in your youth
(But if you had the chance to live your life again)
(Would you squander your beauty and intelligence)
(Take a look in the mirror now cause every word is true)
(I'd be afraid if I were U)
But if you had the chance to live your life again
Would you squander your beauty and intelligence
Take a look in the mirror now cause every word is true
I'd be afraid if I were U
If I were U
