What if i'm wrong

We could wrestle with tomorrow
Till tomorrow´s in the past
Because I have torn apart what´s beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
I have stayed locked behind this door
To show there´s no way out
I got lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have combed the cracks of virtue
For a place to lay the blame
And I have hated, I have lied
Been guilty and denied
I´ve dismissed the ones who question me
Declaring I am right
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
I have built a wall between
What I believe and what is true
I have sacrificed the love I had
For power over you
I have deflected those who disagree
And walked over the weak
I have placed a gun within the mouth
Of those who dare to speak
On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have crushed the minds of children
With extraordinary shame
And I have carried on this war
Though no one wins an endless fight
I have claimed that God is guiding me
And killed to prove I´m right
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
Is this soul worth saving at all?
Cos´ if I lose my wings then surely I must fall
And God´ll faint, fall insane
We could wrestle with tomorrow
Till tomorrow´s in the past
We could tear apart what´s beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
We could stay locked behind the doors
To show there´s no way out
We got lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
What if we´re wrong
Till tomorrow´s in the past
Because I have torn apart what´s beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
I have stayed locked behind this door
To show there´s no way out
I got lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have combed the cracks of virtue
For a place to lay the blame
And I have hated, I have lied
Been guilty and denied
I´ve dismissed the ones who question me
Declaring I am right
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
I have built a wall between
What I believe and what is true
I have sacrificed the love I had
For power over you
I have deflected those who disagree
And walked over the weak
I have placed a gun within the mouth
Of those who dare to speak
On an ordinary day
In an ordinary way
I have crushed the minds of children
With extraordinary shame
And I have carried on this war
Though no one wins an endless fight
I have claimed that God is guiding me
And killed to prove I´m right
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
What if I´m wrong
Is this soul worth saving at all?
Cos´ if I lose my wings then surely I must fall
And God´ll faint, fall insane
We could wrestle with tomorrow
Till tomorrow´s in the past
We could tear apart what´s beautiful
To prove that nothing lasts
We could stay locked behind the doors
To show there´s no way out
We got lost within the space between
The question and the doubt
What if we´re wrong
