Lyrics
I should have seen it from the start
I regret not realizing the situation from the beginning.
I should have listened to my heart and opened my eyes
I should have trusted my instincts and been more aware.
Intuition right
Acknowledging the importance of intuition.
But I never fully know
I never fully understand the situation.
Always move too fast I shouldn't let it go
My impulsive nature causes me to move too quickly and not hold on.
Mentally elastic
Mentally flexible, easily swayed.
Pulling to and fro
Torn between different directions.
Never made it last I always move too fast
Relationships don't last due to my hasty actions.
Too scared to let em have it
Fearful of being vulnerable and letting others in.
If it's not right, baby it's wrong, baby it's wrong
If it doesn't feel right, it's wrong.
If it's not right
Reiteration of the importance of things feeling right.
Oh, I should have known when to lead, 'stead of lead I followed
I failed to take the lead when necessary, following instead.
And I shouldn't ask to relieve harder pills to swallow
Regret about seeking relief from difficult situations.
I thought that we were who we said we were
Doubt about the authenticity of the proclaimed identity.
I thought that we were who we said we were
-I thought that we were who we said we were
-Maybe there's more to me than I think
Uncertainty about one's true self.
Maybe it's wrong of me to believe that I was something else
Doubting the belief that one was something different.
To try and hide up on a shelf
Trying to conceal and avoid facing certain aspects of oneself.
"The role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible"
Quoting the role of the artist in making change appealing.
"The role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible"
-"The role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible"
-Oh, I should have known when to lead, 'stead of lead I followed
Repetition of regret for not leading and seeking relief.
And I shouldn't ask to relieve harder pills to swallow
-I thought that we were who we said we were
Continued doubt about the authenticity of the proclaimed identity.
I thought that we were who we said we were
-I thought that we were who we said we were
-Who we were, who we were yeah
Repetition of questioning and reflecting on who they were.
Who we were, who we were yeah
-Who we were, who we were yeah
-Who we were, who we were yeah
-Who we were, who we were yeah
-Who we were, who we were yeah
-Who we were, who we were yeah
-Who we were, who we were yeah
Final affirmation of uncertainty about their true identity.
