If You Could Feel

[Verse 1]
When you were tired, I stayed
By your side in the grey
Held the door, held my tongue
Kept my hurt still undone

You leaned on me like home
Then left me there alone
I was warm, I was real
You just never seemed to feel

[Pre-Chorus]
Were you ever there?
When I called your name
I was all in, babe
You played it safe

If you had my eyes
If you knew my weight
Maybe you’d see
What you made me take

[Chorus]
If you could feel
What I felt
(what I felt)
If you could feel
What I felt

If you had my mind
You’d know why I’m not fine
If you could feel
What I felt

[Verse 2]
I learned your moods by heart
Still you kept me apart
I was patient, I was kind
You were gone half the time

I asked for just enough
You gave me almost love
Now I’m staring at the truth
I was always there for you

[Pre-Chorus]
Were you ever there?
When I needed care
I was reaching out
You were nowhere

If you had my skin
If you wore my shame
Maybe you’d understand
Why I say your name

[Chorus]
If you could feel
What I felt
(what I felt)
If you could feel
What I felt

If you had my mind
You’d know why I’m not fine
If you could feel
What I felt

[Bridge]
I don’t need a crown
I don’t need a prize
I just need one night
In your tired eyes

See the empty room
Hear the things I hide
Then you’d know the cost
Of being left behind

[Final Chorus]
If you could feel
What I felt
(what I felt)
If you could feel
What I felt

If you had my mind
You’d know why I’m not fine
If you could feel
What I felt

If you could feel
What I felt
(what I felt)
If you could feel
What I felt
