If I were a mind reader
Of what I would do,
I would read you,
Your thoughts,
Your sorrows,
Of all in which from me you hide,
In all of which you fear to confide.

If I were a mind reader,
I listen deep and true,
Of all of which the demons that haunt you,
Of all your hopes
your dreams
your fears,
Of all the unforgotten past tears,

If I were a mind reader,
I’d watch and see,
Your memories of which would display to me,
All your laughs,
Your screams,
Your pain.

If I were a mind reader,
I’d know what makes you tick,
What makes you mad,
And what makes you sick,
I’d know you,
Your heart,
and soul

If I were a mind reader,
I’d finally find out,
What makes your eyes so sad,
Your mind so mad,
Your heart so broken,
And your pain,
To me,
So unspoken
