If I Were You

(álbum: Barricades & Brickwalls - 2001)

If I was good
I'd tell everyone I know
If I was free
I wouldn't be so keen to go

If I was wrong
I would take it like a man
If I was smart
I would get out while I can

If I was broken
I would probably let it be
If I was dying
I wouldn't go out quietly

If I was lost
Well my heart would feel the same
If I was honest
I would probably be ashamed

But if I were you
I would notice me
If I were you
I would wait for me

If I were you
I would easily hold me and say
It's all gonna be OK

If I was rich
I would spend it on my own
If I was dignified
I'd only smoke at home

If I was dark
I would only dress in black
If I was chosen
I would gladly give it back

It's not for you to judge
From all this kind of stuff
I'm only half of what you see
