What If
What if it was a different time?
What if you'd been in a different place?
What if you'd lasted longer?
What if, what if, what if...
What if the world stopped spinning?
What if nobody went on?
What if we still need you?
What if, what if, what if...
What if they never recover?
What if it's not even close to the same?
What if you're still in pain?
What if, what if, what if...
What if there had been a cure?
What if the hardest try was enough?
What if our worlds hadn't come undone?
What if, what if, what if...
But what if I still can't breathe?
And what if it still isn't right?
And what if I'm still not fine?
What if, what if, what if...
These what it's of mine,
Are none compared to yours,
To your family's pain,
What if, what if, what if...
What if what if's weren't useless?
What if what if's brought you back?
I know there's enough of them,
What if, what if, what if...
But 200 what if's can't change that date,
The date the what if's started,
The date to end your pain,
What if, what if, what if...
