Hindsight 20/23

Valentines, Friday night
And the band was playing loud
Feeling lost in a crowd
Singing Colony House
He wasn't there but I still
Felt him on my chest
Left his marks on my skin
That I can't forget
Feeling lost in a crowd
Knowing I sold out

Red and pink balloons
Spots of black and blue
Mentally tattooed
Crying in the bathroom
Kisses turned to cuts
Gentle hands turned rough
Who's rewritten love

I forgive myself
For not knowing then
What I know now
I forgive myself
For letting you in
For shutting my mouth

I'm gonna scream it now
Till my lungs give out
Couldn't believe me then
I believe me now
Wish I could go back in time
And save the old me
But Hindsight 20/23

College friends all screaming
To a song about "Julia, Julia"
Yeah he sounds so obsessed
Feels a little familiar

Strawberries and wine
Chocolate covered lies
Kill my appetite
So much for "be mine"
Violence and velvet
Weren't designed to mix
Sweet to sickening

I forgive myself
For not knowing then
What I know now
I forgive myself
For letting you in
For shutting my mouth

I'm gonna scream it now
Till my lungs give out
Couldn't believe me then
I believe me now
Wish I could go back in time
And save the old me
But Hindsight 20/23

Curtains close on the
Girl I used to know
As she fades into the crowd
She would say love is pain
But I know better now
I'm better now

I forgive myself
For not knowing then
What I know now
I forgive myself
For letting you in
For shutting my mouth

I'm gonna scream it now
Till my lungs give out
Couldn't believe me then
I believe me now
Wish I could go back in time and save the old me
But Hindsight 20/23
