If it was that easy, I would have left already.

by Behind Blue Eyes   Jun 25, 2007


Your hand is on the door
But you don't know if you're going to leave.
Life has dealt us a folding hand
But you have some cards up your sleeve.
One foot in the door and one foot out.
It's calling time, you must choose.
Live a life, forever with me,
Or pick the one where you'll always lose.
You know what your options are.
And you know how they will play out.
But don't make a decision if in your mind
There is any sign of reasonable doubt.
I'm here to help you make a decision.
Don't feel bad if you don't pick me.
There's a reason why I gave you a choice.
It's your life. Do what you want. Be free.
I will always be around.
If you need me, call my name.
Even if I cannot hear you,
I'll be praying for you, all the same.

But none of this will ever be good enough
I can't be without you by my side.
If I ever said I was strong enough to live without you
Well, I'm sorry, but I lied.
It's hard to give up the one you love,
To the one that he despises.
But I'll be giving up my best friend too.
...Life's full of horrid surprises.

So if this is goodbye to you,
Then hello to my grave.
But if you decide to be with me,
Thank you for being brave.
