Otherwise

However  sturdy  you  may  seem  to  be
Whatever  you  may  say  to  look  severe
I’ll  never  know  what  you  may  sacrifice
But  there  will  always  be  an  “otherwise”

You  can’t  stand  neither  vassalage  nor  pleading,
I  wonder  –  have  you  yet  suppressed  your  feelings?
And  all  your  words  have  been  suffice
To  know  there  must  be  “otherwise”

Otherwise  you’d  be  tender,
Otherwise  I’d  surrender
After  I  fall  apart
Otherwise,  summer  ending,
We  would  just  quit  pretending
Having  a  chance  to  start
Absolutely  new  folder
Therefore  you’d  have  to  hold  me
Lest  I  should  lose  the  ground
Otherwise  keep  to  longing
“Otherwise”  won’t  make  stronger
“Otherwise”  brings  no  wounds

You  never  start  but  you’re  afraid  of  end
You  try  to  show  me  I’m  a  common  friend
Your  heart  is  a  controllable  device
Because  you’ve  never  thought  of  “otherwise”
