If I bore a different name
If I lived a different life
Would my thoughts run quite the same?
Balanced on this cross-eyed knife
If I walked a different path
Would I walk it all alone?
Feel the weight of this sweet wrath?
Could I call a place my home?
Could I call a place my home?
If I bore a different name
Would I find it cause to smile?
Be my actions bold or tame?
Be my roads in feet or miles?
If I woke a different day
Would I search for something more?
Would I love a different way?
What would I be looking for?
What would I be living for?
If I were a different man
Would my faults cut just as deep?
Would I pursue some greater plan?
What would I dream when I sleep?
If I wore a different face
Would light constant shine on me?
Bask within, or learn no trace?
Hold me close, or leave me be?
Hold me close, or leave me be?
If I bore a different nameā¦
