If I had a silver piece for ever tear I cried in your name,
Well, I’d melt it to make a shield
But nothing could ever quite keep you out
Perhaps I’d make Knights armor,
to secure myself from your hurt and blame.
If I had a golden doubloon, for every kind word you said
I’d melt it, for these were rare, down to an elegant ring
I’d have a jeweler carve those words,
And a heart along the inside
So that, when I wore it,
I’d have, touch, see, happier times
If I had a diamond, the carats amounting to each sob
I’d keep it for myself, place it in a safe
So that such an object of chaos, would never escape
Maybe I’d put it on that gold ring
Place it on my ring finger
You know that one?
So that we’d be eternally bound
In disloyalty and in gain
What if my teardrops pooled together?
Maybe I’d have a full swimming pool of sorrow
Either so I could always be coated in pain
And feel you gently caressing my name
Maybe I’d just drown myself
Yeah… that’s always an option
