What if I told you about my little nothing town

The two room house where I came from

The man that I got my name from

I don't even know where he is now



What if I told you sometimes I lose my faith

I wonder why someone like you would even talk to me

What if I told you there is no fixing me

Cause everybody has already tried



Would you stay?

Would you leave?

I could wait

It'll all come out eventually



If I told you all the stupid things I've done

I've blamed on being young

But I was old enough to know I know

If I told you the mess that I can be

When there's no one there to see

Could you look the other way?

Could you love me anyway?



What if I told you I don't plan on staying here

My dreams are a million miles away

And I know your family is gonna want you to stay

You know what I don't blame 'em



So I'll say

What I don't want to

And I'll just pray

You want what I do
