What If? Lyrics

Been disconnected for so long
And left my mark here along the way
So many years have come and gone
So many fears have remained the same

I see a faith
I swim and play
Yet drowning all possibilities
Beyond what I believe and know
I cut the cord free of home again

It turns to silence
A silence sometimes I can hear
Internal violence
A struggle deep within what if

What if I leave, could I still breathe
What if I breathe, could I still be
And if I leave, would I be me

I lost my hope along the way
I lost my hope along the way

It turns to silence
A silence sometimes I can hear
Internal violence
A struggle deep within what if

What if I leave, could I still breathe
What if I breathe, could I still be
And if I leave, would I be me

What if
What if
What if

It turns to silence
A silence sometimes I can hear
Internal violence
A demon deep within what if

What if I leave, could I still breathe
What if I breathe, could I still be
And if I leave, would I be me

What if
What if
What if

Cover art for What If? lyrics by Godsmack

The new album really expresses how much Godsmack has matured over the years. Lyrically and Musically

Sully has said this song is about wanting to call Godsmack quiets and move on with his life but contemplating what would become of him if he does leave.

Song Meaning

wow..if that's really what he said the song is about...then that's pretty lame. Gee Sully...what about the fans that have been loyal all these yrs? Really just can't identify with this song if that's the case. Song is a bit repetitive.

One correction -- I believe it is: "A sea of faith, I swim and play"

Unfortunately the deluxe edition of the CD didn't come with a lyrics sheet, so I can't confirm this for sure. However, "I see a faith" as it is written now, makes no sense.

@LRonaldHubbs To me it is definitely "A sea of faith". Plus, it makes no sense otherwise, as you pointed out.
