If I were to feel
all the love I have for you
it would coil
and it would crush
me whole

It would wrap around me til I couldnt breathe
and take away my life
Like a snake to a bird of prey
I'd be for sure gone
I'd be history

So in some ways, its better that you stay away
back there in the cold
but I wonder does it hurt where you are
do you get hungry
do you feel sad
do you cry because you haven't gotten back what you once had
am I a disappointment to you Dad?

If I were to feel
all my fears of losing you
they would drown me
pull me under
the sea, oh I'd be history

So in some ways, Its better that you stay away
back there in the cold
but I wonder does it hurt where you are
do you get hungry
do you feel sad
do you cry because you haven't gotten back what you once had
am I a dissappointment to you Dad?

if I were to feel
all the Love I have for you
Id be history
Id be history
Id be history
Id be history

Who says love
always felt good?
Even beauty can hold you down
and it can claw through you
make you fall
sometimes I wish I didn't feel at all

Because if I were to feel
all the Love I have for you
id be History
