What If

Silence can say so much
And talking doesn’t get anyone anywhere
It only pushes people apart
Makes them both think the other one doesn’t care
Words can linger for a lifetime
That’s why feelings are better confined
You can’t change the stars as well as egos
No one’s ever backing down
No one will let it go

What if I said that I can’t love you?
Would you think I’m insensitive?
I hope you’d know I’m just incapable
And there’s nothing I can do to help it

Feelings change in a blink
But actions will remain as long as you and I
It’s better if done right the first time
Even better with words you can justify
Memories live on ‘til you’re gone
Internally you’ll never move on
I can’t always be perfect for you
Maybe I’m not good enough
There’s nothing I can do

What if I said that I’m confused
Would you embrace me?
I hope you’d know I’m indecisive
And there’s nothing I could do to help it

I’d like to believe everything you say
But for some reason I can’t
I don’t know if I’ll love you completely anyway
