If Not For You (Alt. Concept)

I know you're nothing but a bad idea
That I wouldn't try
So, I'm wonderin' what good could come from me
Stopping by

Say there's nothing for me here
Tell me to turn around
Every time I get you near
You say the quiet part out loud

Well, you're nothing but a bad idea
That I wouldn't try

If the sky was hanging low
And the moon has got to grow
And I'd walk this world alone
If not for you

Yeah, nothing but a bad idea
That you wouldn't try
So, the trouble is, it's trouble does
They say calm, it's no surprise

Yeah, there's nothing for you here
You burned every bridge in town
Every time that you come near
You say the quiet part out loud

Yeah, nothing but a bad idea
That you wouldn't try

Oh, how time went by
And the oceans they did dry
And I always felt so hypnotized
And not by you

All the lights said stop
And the oceans they did drop
And I'd always feel so on top
If not for you

If not for you
If not for you

If not for you
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah (if not for you)
All the lights said stop
All the lights said stop
Ah, ah-ah-ah
