My Helplessness

If I had known

What I said

Would become truth

I would never have said

At all

If I had known

I would have your pain

Taken away

Unheeding of the price

If I had known

You'd walk down where

I could not follow

I would have stopped you

No matter what it takes

If I had known

I'd give anything

To take your place instead

If I had known

I would have

Held your hand

Throughout it all

If I had known

I would have stood by your side

To say goodbye

If I had known

This pain would hurt

like a thousand knives

I would rather not have

felt anything at all

And yet in the end

There is no 'if'

Because I hadn't know
