Hindsight

lyrics

“Run for the hills” they said. It’s the last thing that I heard before I turned around to try and leave.

But darling, when you’re finished here, if you would be so kind then maybe you could go haunt someone else’s dreams.

I should have seen it coming when my brother said you’re headed straight for hell. You better check yourself or you’d better hold on tight.

And if the hate inside my heart doesn’t overtake whats left before I learn to let it go then I’ll never make it out alive.

And by the time I saw the self destructive things that I had done it felt like way past too late.

Completely unaware I was a mess and fully wrapped myself in lies I thought I’d never escape.

I should have known, I swear.

I should have seen it coming when my brother said you’re headed straight for hell. You better check yourself or you’d better hold on tight.

And if the hate inside my heart doesn’t overtake whats left before I learn to let it go then I’ll never make it out alive.

Maybe if I prayed a little more. Maybe if I tried a little harder. Maybe if I hadn’t been so wrapped up in the sins I thought I loved.
Maybe if I tried to take back some of the hurtful things I say to all the people all around me every time I drink too much.

Maybe if I’d shut my mouth and listen to the things you had to say instead of swearing I’d known better and lying to myself that I had changed. Maybe if I’d opened up my eyes and seen rescue standing right there I wouldn’t have been lost for song. I should have known, I swear.

I should have seen it coming when my brother said you’re headed straight for hell. You better check yourself or you’d better hold on tight.

And if the hate inside my heart doesn’t overtake whats left before I learn to let it go then I’ll never make it out alive.

I’ll never make it out alive.
