If I were you

Barbarous cruelty.
Your weakness breaks what I call bones.
My diamonds were the rubies
and all my right moves were anything, but paragons.
See all their beauty-
I'm the proof it's all just lies.

They say you're vampire.
See, my empire burns to the ground.
Don't think I'm smart enough to realize the cruelty of this town.
If I were you, babe,
I'd think of me till morning light,
but now I think if I were you

I'd wake up in the night,
staring at the starry sky.
Wondering if it's right,
when I'm not there, then where am I?
There's something you never do.
Oh, if I were only you.

Shoot from a distance.
Too far to see I'm crystalline.
I'm just the old manes,
cause nobody believes in me.
Own me in one sentence.
I died, I guess I died,
but you know if I were you

I'd run to me through winter storm.
I'd light your heart, I'd make it burn.
You see the moon light up the path.
It gives me memories for life.
For you it's just the place
Oh,if I were me
I'd carve it all on your heart,
but I'm afraid to make you hurt.
Devil is a tricky guy.
He hides himself where I can't find,
but oh, my God.
If I were you, I'd make it right,

but being you is
falling on the unmade bed each night.
Empty refrigerator light.
The news are coming, but the past
covers your tunnel with the rust.

Oh, I wish I could change this.
I feel so foolish, I feel so dense.

If I were you just one time
I'd hold me tight, I'd let me cry.
I'd take the dagger from inside,
just to stop this senseless fight.
This fight within.
Oh, if I were me
I'd make it clear from the start.
Same girl, same tired breaking heart.
I'd never care of what you'd think,
cause I got I, myself and me,
but now, I've got you within.
If I were you, I'd stop this fight within.
If I were only me
I'd never need people's things:
coincidence, evidentiality.
Screaming in the backyard dark.
Dark silence, dark hope, orange heart, kiss you on the stadium.
Oh, if I only were you.
