Is As If

If this is the reason,
I'd rather not know;
And if this is leaving,
Then I don't want to go.

My heart is pleading
For all that it hopes,
But you don't believe me.
Is that what this is for?

Well, if this is needing,
Then I don't want more;
And if this is breathing,
Then I'll go ahead and choke.

My conscience is reeling
From all that it knows,
And no one believes me
As to what this is for.

You cover your ears from the screams
That no one else seems to hear.

My heart is bleeding
All of its hope,
And I might believe me
If that's what this is for.
