If I'd Shared With You

If I'd shared with you, tell me

How much would you have cared?

Pages and pages of unsaid words

And hidden feelings of suffocation,

No one saw, no one heard, no one cared.

Lost in the maze of my own wild world,

Screamed in the silence of eternity.

If I'd shared with you, tell me

How much would you have cared?

I cried, complained, begged for help,

You named me mad and the show's over,

I chose silence instead;

But the ghost inside me remained

Unbothered by my lively death.

If I'd shared with you, tell me

How much would you have cared?

Thousands of emotions I left to freeze,

Numbness, now is surely my ally,

But then again when I look inside

The saline river just happens to build up in my eyes,

I realized I'm fighting deep within.

If darling,

If I'd shared with you, tell me

How much would you have cared?
