If Hindsight is 20​/​20 We're Fucked

from AS YOU WERE by HOURS

lyrics

Trapped in cages / stuck in mazes.
While I’m just trying to find ways of escaping.
Clawing up walls and tearing up floors.
I was brought up and know what was right.
I was told that good days mean more than good nights.
It’s a choice between waiting or leaving alone.

These days I’m running out of time.
And it’s alright.
By all means, let’s clarify what it’s like.
To be the circled prey again, like always.
And you’re too scared to let me in, for shelter.

New attempts at old efforts - of convincing myself.
For stability, forced stability that I’m not confident in.
We drag along searching for home ground with a comforting sound.
Don’t get me wrong. It fucking kills me.

These days I’m running out of time.
And it’s alright.
By all means, let’s clarify what it’s like.
To be the circled prey again, like always.
And you’re too scared to let me in, for shelter.
When all this started to begin – I wonder…
Why all this, was useless.
Why I was always left alone.


Get yourself out that headspace. Stop being a fucking drag – yourself back, get yourself back

I tried to find some kind of resolution – some kind of conclusion.
We fall behind fighting to stay as we were. Turn it around.

These days I’m running out of time. And it’s alright.
By all means, let’s clarify what it’s like.
To be the circled prey again, like always.
And you’re too scared to let me in, for shelter.
When all this started to begin, I wonder.
