L'esprit De L'escalier (The Staircase)
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
Shit-talker! You'll get it in the end
The right retort was better in your head
The best words always come too late
The best you can do is extrapolate
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
What could have been if I'd said the right words
Would I have been happier? Would I be free of hurt
Gotta live with the past to maintain the present
But would it haven been better with a different transgression
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
In the back of my head
I think I'm still out of luck
Cause despite all my comebacks
I know that I'm still fucked
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
Shit-talker! You'll get it in the end
The right retort was better in your head
The best words always come too late
The best you can do is extrapolate
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
What could have been if I'd said the right words
Would I have been happier? Would I be free of hurt
Gotta live with the past to maintain the present
But would it haven been better with a different transgression
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
In the back of my head
I think I'm still out of luck
Cause despite all my comebacks
I know that I'm still fucked
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then what I know now
I'd still find a way to mess it up somehow, Hey
