What if..

What if I give up now, let the silence fall?

What if I let the darkness answer my call?

Make the pain go away, just drift into the night,

No more battles to fight, no more wrongs to right.

I whisper to the void, do you hear me plead?

I’m drowning in thoughts, is this what I need?

What if I were free, floating beyond the pain?

What if you listened, and answered my name?

Maybe I’ll be free, once more I’ll fly,

Maybe you’ll catch me, before I say goodbye.

What if I fade like a forgotten song?

Would you notice I’ve been silent all along?

Would the echoes fill the space I leave?

Would your tears finally let me breathe?

Hope flickers faint, like a distant flame,

Calling my name, through shadows and shame.

What if I were free, floating beyond the pain?

What if you listened, and answered my name?

Maybe I’ll be free, once more I’ll fly,

Maybe you’ll catch me, before I say goodbye.

Maybe I’ll be free... again.

Maybe you’ll hear... and make it end.
