Twenty Years

If I could have seen just how easy
It would be to fall in love with what's around me
If would have known just how lightly
I'd get thrown into the water I want to drown in
Lady the rain falls
Lady the pains gone
If I could have seen just how easy
It would be to get lost in what's around me
I would have been crying
What's it like to finally see the sun
After twenty years of trying to be okay.
If I would have tried maybe I'd have felt secure
Instead of hanging on your reply.
If I would have saved the little day that we had left
If i could have learned to behave
Lady the rain falls
Lady the pains gone
If I could have seen just how easy
It would be to get lost in what's around me
I would have been crying
What's it like to finally see the sun
After twenty years of trying to be okay
The pain can be deadly
But it seems that I have made it out
Before it had the chance to get me
I made it safe
