Folds on Fire - Creation / What If? Lyrics

What if I was you and you were me?
What if you traded your life for mine?
What if you wore the scars upon my heart?
What if I'm the horse and you're the cart?

Would you see the forest among the trees?
Would you question everything you believe?

What if you stood upon the moon?
What if you sailed among the stars?
What if you only had a day left on this earth?
What if you saw what every life is worth?

Would you think you're above it all?
Would you help us to evolve?

What if you forgot what you've been sold?
What if your parents weren't always right?
What if all the labels got thrown away?
What if curiosity seized the day?

Would you stop building walls of fear?
Would you look beyond your holy mirror?

Out beyond the realm of societal norms
You'll find perfection lives in all forms

What if you crossed the street today?
What if you left your bubble to the side?
What if you only had love in your heart?
What if you knew all this from the start?

Would you change the story you're telling yourself?
Would you change the way you think of me?
Of me?
Of me?
