Testo If Love Could’ve Saved You - Queen Butterfly
Testo della canzone If Love Could’ve Saved You (Queen Butterfly), tratta dall'album If Love Could’ve Saved You
Before this starts
I need you to understand something
These are the words
From the other side of suicide
From the people left standing
After someone they loved
Couldnt stay
The ones who still ask questions
The ones who still blame themselves
The ones who still reach for a phone
That will never ring the same again
This is not anger
This is not judgment
This is love
With nowhere to go
This is grief
Trying to speak
This is what it sounds like
When somebody leaves
And the people who loved them
Have to keep breathing
Around the hole they left behind
Ive tried to find the right words
But some pain doesnt come with the right words
Some pain just sits in your chest
And makes a home there
No matter how much time passes
Theres still a part of you
That stayed behind
On the day everything changed
This is for the ones we loved
The ones we still love
The ones we wouldve saved
If love was enough
You were somebody who changed me
Somebody I loved deeply
Somebody I still look for
In places you used to be
Now I walk through days
That still expect me to breathe
Like I didnt lose the air
When I lost you
People say
Dont blame yourself
And I know they mean well
They tell me I couldnt have known
They tell me I couldnt have stopped it
They tell me your pain was bigger
Than anything I could have loved away
And maybe theyre right
But grief doesnt care about maybe
Grief comes at night
When the world gets quiet
And asks questions that dont have answers
What if I had called
What if I had stayed
What if I had heard something different in your voice
What if one more I love you
Couldve held you here
Because if love couldve saved you
You would still be here
If my arms couldve pulled you out of that darkness
If my voice couldve been louder
Than the pain lying to you
You would still be here
I loved you enough
To fight every shadow that came for you
I just didnt know
I was fighting something
That had already gotten too close
And I hate that
I hate that you were hurting
In ways I couldnt see
I hate that your mind convinced you
You were alone
When you were loved so deeply
I hate that pain can be that loud
Loud enough to drown out the people
Who would have dropped everything
Loud enough to make you believe
The world would keep turning the same without you
But it doesnt
There is a hole in my heart
That still has your shape
There are songs I cant listen to
Places I cant go
Memories I cant touch
Without breaking open all over again
There are moments I still reach for you
Before I remember
And that remembering hurts every time
Because losing you didnt just break my heart
It changed me
It changed the way I hear silence
The way I answer the phone
The way I say goodbye
Now every quiet moment feels dangerous
Every missed call feels heavy
Every Im fine sounds like something I need to check on
Because I know now
That sometimes people who are drowning
Dont look like theyre drowning
Sometimes they smile
Sometimes they laugh
Sometimes they say theyre okay
But you were never a burden
Not for one second
And to anyone listening
Who feels like the world would be better without you
Please hear me
That is pain talking
That is the darkness lying to you
You may feel tired
You may feel broken
You may feel like reaching out is too hard
But reach out anyway
Send the text
Make the call
Tell somebody
Im not okay
You dont have to explain it perfectly
Just stay
Stay long enough for help to find you
Stay long enough for the feeling to pass
Stay long enough to let somebody love you
Through the part you dont know how to survive alone
Because there is someone
Who will spend the rest of their life
Missing you if you go
There is someone
Who will replay every conversation
Looking for what they missed
There is someone
Who would give anything
For one more chance
To tell you how much you matter
Please dont let the worst moment of your life
Make the final decision
You are needed
You are loved
You are not too far gone
You are not too much
You are not a burden
And to the one I lost
I dont know if this reaches you
Wherever you are
But I hope somehow
You know
I hope you know I still love you
I hope you know I dont remember you
For how you left
I remember your heart
I remember your laugh
I remember the way you made life feel less lonely
And Im sorry
Im sorry for every moment
You felt alone
Im sorry the world was too heavy
When you deserved somewhere soft to land
Im sorry my love couldnt save you
The way I wish it could have
But I need you to know
It was there
It is still here
It didnt leave when you did
I still carry it
I still carry you
Still loved
Still missed
Still irreplaceable
And if love couldve saved you
If my love couldve saved you
You would have lived forever
