If I Were to Write the Song...

歌詞

Ring the [Incomprehensible], let it in, say softly begin If it feels like the first time, don't let it in 'Cause it wanders by Like something that could have been If I were to write this song That could penetrate your ears Would it calm your trembling soul? Would it ease your every fear? Can we go back to The place where we all used to see through Every thing blinding us? Now you don't understand anything anymore You shiver at the signs You're afraid to show that You're always so willing to know Could the song solve all our problems? Could it have the strength to heal? Would it cripple and destroy And leave nothing unrevealed? And then might it uproot every lie And force us all to cower Beneath this tremendous weight In the wake of all its power? Can we go back to The place where we all used to see through Every thing blinding us? Now you don't understand anything anymore You shiver at the signs You're afraid to show that You're always so willing to know Oh, did you know, did you know Did you know better? Don't you know, don't you know Don't you know better? Don't you know, don't you know Don't you know better? Don't you know that You shiver at the signs? You're afraid to show that You're always so willing to know If I were to write the song That could somehow change the world Would it be, I can't surrender I can fight to the death? Would it give something to live for? Would it give our final breath? Would it be a lulling opera, sweet as a child's kiss? Would it sound like all the others? Would it sound something like this?
