If Only Lyrics by Anouk

Deena & Jim

2023

[Verse 1]
If only you could read my mind
If only you could see what happens inside
'Cause sometimes it's a terrible place
I found out it's the only way
If only you knew what I'm feeling

[Chorus]
'Cause my mind plays tricks on me
My mind is blown, one of its own
The only thing keeps me here
Are feelings that bind my soul
Now why do I stay where I don't belong?
Why do I stay where I don't belong?

[Verse 2]
If only you could read the signs
Then I wouldn't have to lie all of the time
'Cause my mind's like a loaded gun
Breaking me even further down
If only you knew what I'm feeling

[Chorus]
'Cause my mind plays tricks on mе
My mind is blown, one of its own
The only thing keeps me hеre
Are feelings that bind my soul
Now why do I stay where I don't belong?
Not that it makes a difference
I don't care anymore
Sometimes it's a terrible place
And I see a demon with red eyes on his face
Sometimes, oh, sometimes
Sometimes it's a terrible place
