If I Could Raise My Hands
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.
Although I don’t understand, I know what’s going on, what’s going on
I wish that I was a man, but I’m not that strong, not that strong
When I see that look that’s in your eye
I wish I knew, just how to get to you
And when you dim the lights and close the door
You’ll never find here, what it is you’re looking for
If I could raise my hands I would
If I could stop the things you’re doing to me, you know I would
If I could say a word or two, I’d know id get to you
And say what I want to
And while I’m feeling the pain
I cannot run away, I want to run away
So here I am once again, Not knowing what to do, what to do
And do you smile while you are hurting me?
If I could beg I would be on my knees
Instead I stand here with my back against the wall
You’ve had your way and you took away my soul
(CHORUS)
I wish that somebody would pick me up and take me away, take me away
Because I’m lying here alone and I’m afraid
I’d rather die now than live a life like this
(CHORUS)
