If I invent a weather
That could defy all the clouds
Would people stop wondering whether it will rain
'Cause time spent speculating, to me
Is time just wasted, to me
Is time just lost for other games
If I could turn back all of our days
Would you still know my face
Would you still know my face
And if I could turn back all of these years
Would all of our moments be buried by fear
Buried by fear
Could I invent a muscle
To pump life around my bones
To beat instead of this heart shape beast I loath
For surely being heartless
Would avoid all of those things
The poets claim to be the route of all
If I could turn back all of our days
Would you still know my face
Would you still know my face
And if I could turn back all of these years
Would all of our moments be buried by fear
Buried by fear
Fear to laugh
And fear to cry
And fear of knowing what it means to die
And fear of hoping
And fear of choking
And fear of loving
Fear of trying
To be someone that you're not
An being caught out
And being left at a loss
And fear of knowing
That these feeling deep inside
Are always better bottled
Than hurt so much to hide
'Cause all you want to do
Is shout out that you're scared
And take comfort in the fact
That maybe someone else is scared too
But what if it's just me
What if no one else is fearful
It's just you
And it's just me
If I invent a secret
Will you keep it to yourself
Will you keep it locked up in your mouth
And will you never spit it out
If I tell you that I love you
That you're the one for me
Although we haven't spoken for so very many weeks
And if I tell you that I hate you
That you've made into a shell
I am pretty on the outside
But inside me there is hell
For you can hear the waves
And you can hear the sea
But in reality
It's a beauty you can't see
And I'm down on my knees
Down on my knees
If I invent a secret
If I invent a secret
If I invent a secret
If I invent a secret
If I invent a secret
Will you keep it to yourself
And will you keep it locked up in your mouth
And will you never spit it out
