Lyrics by Yara Nau Zardi

[verse]

what will i do
of the distance
when i need u in my pockets?

talking to the walls is a new
pastime and i'm getting good at it

i put a bet on my life
so i could go and lose it
maybe with time i'll accept it

i've been trying so hard
to mend the cra-a-a-cks
until there was no solution

[pre?hook]

i've been on my knees for far too long
i think my kneecaps – are – damaged

it's getting hard for
me to keep up with the world's motion

the moment i'm needing a break's the only
moment life fastens

and my prayer now sounds different
they are on a different cadence

and i know you said with
hardships comes ease
god i've been patient

[hook]

if you only were
in my pockets

then i draw you
out and tell you
how bad it is

give you an insight
about how a human
feels

if you only were
in my pockets

(if only)
(if only)
(if only)

[verse]

i'd spill ink on my diary
so dark i wonder will
i be judged on what you read?

if you got a glimpse
of the heresy on these pages
my diary would be kept
in the deepest vaults of the vatican

would it make me an abomination
'cause i ripped a little girl
will there be no room for repentance
'cause i got blood on my hands?

i got people wondering what
witchcraft is coming out my mouth
'cause i'm mouthing nonsense
i don't expect them to get it
'cause it's things only a pocket god
will understand

[pre?hook]

i've been on my knees for far too long
i think my kneecaps – are – damaged

it's getting hard for
me to keep up with the world's motion

the moment i'm needing a break's the only
moment life fastens

and my prayer now sounds
different
they are on a different cadence

and i know you said with
hardships comes ease
god i've been patient

[hook]

if you only were
in my pockets

then i draw you
out and tell you
how bad it is

give you an insight
about how a human
feels

if you only were
in my pockets

(if only)
(if only)
(if only)

[bridge]

dear god would you
put down the veil
descend from the sky
to the realm of man
help me look around
for a lost faith
and i heard that you
never set aside a held hand

[final hook]

if you only were
in my pockets

then i draw you
out and tell you
how bad it is

give you an insight
about how a human
feels

if you only were
in my pockets (clean, rich whisper, fading)

(if only)
(if only)
(if only)
