If I Had Chosen

Verse 1
What if I’d walked a different road,
Carried a lighter, hidden load?
Every choice I didn’t make,
Every step I chose to take.

Pre-Chorus
Would I be stronger, would I be free,
Or trapped inside this version of me?

Chorus
If I’d chosen, if I’d dared,
Would I have loved myself or cared?
A life rewritten, a heart unscarred,
Or just a mirror, staring hard?
Time won’t turn, the past won’t bend,
Yet I keep asking, again and again.

Verse 2
I give my love, yet leave none for me,
My own reflection, a mystery.
Every choice that might have saved,
Still leaves me haunted by the grave I paved.

Pre-Chorus
Would I be kinder, would I survive,
Or just a shadow barely alive?

Chorus
If I’d chosen, if I’d dared,
Would I have loved myself or cared?
A life rewritten, a heart unscarred,
Or just a mirror, staring hard?
Time won’t turn, the past won’t bend,
Yet I keep asking, again and again.

Bridge
I pour my love to everyone,
But my own heart comes undone.
Every “what if” tears me apart,
A world outside I can’t chart.

Final Chorus
If I’d chosen, if I’d dared,
Would I have loved myself or cared?
A life rewritten, a heart unscarred,
Or just a mirror, staring hard?
Time won’t turn, the past won’t bend,
Still I wonder, again and again.

Outro
If I could choose, if I could rewind,
Would I save myself or leave behind?
Every path a thread of pain,
Yet I still carry love through the rain.
