Lyrics
Something inside my head is
Ticking like a clock
Tearing me apart
Telling me what’s right is wrong
Something inside me says
I should know better
I should show better
I should talk to you
I shoulda, coulda, woulda
shoulda, woulda
shoulda, coulda, woulda,
coulda, woulda
Hindsight is 20/20, oh
But mind sight is worth more than gold
Hindsight is 20/20, oh
But mind sight is worth more than gold
Inside my mind there’s a letter it says
“Do better next time.”
Even still, something inside me refuses to let me live unchained
So I live the same
But as the letter fades
Erasing your love
Like a dying dove
I know now where I went wrong
Something inside me says
I should know better
Should show better
I should talk to you
I shoulda, coulda, woulda
shoulda, woulda
shoulda, coulda, woulda,
coulda, woulda
Hindsight is 20/20, oh
But mind sight is worth more than gold
Hindsight is 20/20, oh
But mind sight is worth more than gold
Hindsight is 20/20, oh
But mind sight is worth more than gold
Hindsight is 20/20, oh
But mind sight is worth
more than gold
more than gold
more than gold
more than gold
more
more than gold
more than gold (woo)
more than gold
more than gold
more
more than, more than, more than…
When I hear talk of gold
Talk of riches, talk of woes
And the inevitable
Holding tight to our souls
Like an ever-present mold
We survive, latching onto hearts
Comfort unfolds
Like a sniper’s cold, unflinching
Stare down the hole
Like the watchers of the world
From afar, we unload
All of our problems on our partners’ hearts
Like papers we unfold
Telling tales, young and old
All the riches and the golden wreaths
We lay upon our dead
When their minds leave their heads
A solo journey is another way
