โShould Have Known Better Lyrics
00:04 intro
00:27 I should have known better
To see what I could see
My black shroud
Holding down my feelings
A pillar for my enemies
00:48 I should have wrote a letter
And grieve what I happen to grieve
My black shroud
I never trust my feelings
I waited for the remedy
01:11 When I was three, three, maybe four
She left us at that video store
Oh, be my rest, be my fantasy
Oh, be my rest, be my fantasy
01:40 instr.
02:02 Iโm light as a feather
Iโm bright as the Oregon breeze
My black shroud
Frightened by my feelings
I only wanna be a relief
02:24 No, Iโm not a go-getter
The demon had a spell on me
My black shroud
Captain of my feelings
The only thing I wanna believe
02:47 When I was three, and free to explore
I saw her face on the back of the door
Oh, be my rest, be my fantasy
Oh, be my rest, be my fantasy
03:43 I should have known better
Nothing can be changed
The past is still the past
The bridge to nowhere
I should have wrote a letter
Explaining what I feel, that empty feeling
03:15 instr.
04:07 Donโt back down, concentrate on seeing
The breakers in the bar, the neighborโs greeting
My brother had a daughter
The beauty that she brings, illumination
04:35 Donโt back down, there is nothing left
The breakers in the bar, no reason to live
Iโm a fool in the fetter (fool in the fetter)
Rose of Aaronโs beard, where you can reach me
04:59 Donโt back down: nothing can be changed
Cantilever bridge, the drunken sailor
My brother had a daughter (brother had a daughter)
The beauty that she brings, illumination (illumination)
