| If I’d had what you have
|
| Had been bad like you have
|
| Heaven help me
|
| If I’d lied like you lie
|
| Had the guts to deny
|
| Heaven help me
|
| If I’d lost my head
|
| Like you keep losing your head
|
| Heaven help me
|
| If I’d done what you’ve done
|
| Pushed erase and moved on
|
| Heaven help me out
|
| If I’d done what you’ve done
|
| You would turn away
|
| If I’d sinned like you’ve sinned
|
| You would choke with dismay
|
| And you would wash your hands in the distain that feeds on your guilt
|
| You would not find that silence leaves you blind
|
| I don’t bite like you bite
|
| Heaven see me
|
| I try hard to be real
|
| I don’t hide what I feel
|
| Heaven see me
|
| Whereas you…
|
| I can’t tell when you fake
|
| I don’t show when you break
|
| Heaven see me
|
| I don’t run from what I do
|
| 'cause I can’t run as fast as you
|
| Heaven see me through
|
| If I’d done what you’ve done
|
| You would turn away
|
| If I’d sinned like you’ve sinned
|
| You would choke with dismay
|
| And you would wash your hands in the distain that feeds on your guilt
|
| You would not see me
|
| You don’t have to tell
|
| There’s no need for us to dweel
|
| I know that it makes no difference at all
|
| The problem that we face is that you cannot embrace
|
| That it goes both ways
|
| If I’d done what you’ve done
|
| You would turn away
|
| If I’d sinned like you’ve sinned
|
| You would choke with dismay
|
| If I’d run like you
|
| If I’d lied like you
|
| You’d wash your hands
|
| Silence is a choice it doesn’t buy you riskfree neutrality
|
| Doesn’t buy you off
|
| It’s a statement and I never fail to catch your point |
