If I have to break, let it be quietly Let me turn from it all, without a mention Until I am gone, don't speak of me A selfless break will bring the long awaited peace If I have to break, let me vanish For years to come I am a phantom A shadow of the abyss An empty memory to those who broke the doll If I have to break, let me be on stage A stage of my creation That empty stage with a spotlight An empty theatre to compleat the scene If I have to break, let it be painless Yes, there is fear A fear of the something, of feeling A case not visible where I have been If I have to break, let the world remember me fondly Let them smile on my memory As the years pass Let them cry If I have to break, let it be soon.

If I Have to Break
If I have to break, let it be quietly Let me turn from it all, without a mention Until I am gone, don't speak of me A selfless break will bring the long awaited peace If I have to break, let me vanish For years to come I am a phantom A shadow of the abyss An empty memory to those who broke the doll If I have to break, let me be on stage A stage of my creation That empty stage with a spotlight An empty theatre to compleat the scene If I have to break, let it be painless Yes, there is fear A fear of the something, of feeling A case not visible where I have been If I have to break, let the world remember me fondly Let them smile on my memory As the years pass Let them cry If I have to break, let it be soon.
