If I Don't
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.
Thought it was a fairytale
Turned into a nightmare
And I don’t wanna turn on the lights
There’s a beautiful monster
He’s laying here in my bed
And I’m lying here believing his lies
I could face myself
Even save myself
Admit that I knew all along
But it’s easier if I don’t
No, it’s easier so I won’t
I could go down that hole
Down that long broken road
And find what I already know
But it’s easier if I don’t
I could dig up all the details
Ask a million questions
I could just try to forget
I could tell you that I love you
Act like I trust you
‘Cause I’m pretty good at pretend
I could tell you it’s over
But then it’d be over
And somethings are better unsaid
Oh, it’s easier if I don’t
No, it’s easier so I won’t
I could go down that hole
Down that long broken road
And find what I already know
But it’s easier if I don’t
It would be easier
I could face myself
Even save myself
Admit that I knew all along
But it’s easier if I don’t
No, it’s easier so I won’t
I could go down that hole
Down that long broken road
And find what I already know
But it’s easier if I don’t
If I don’t
