Memories are bad dreams to me So paint me a picture so I can see All I want, all I want But now I realize That I should have known better (Ah) And I should have expected more for myself (Ah) And I should have known better You can't hide from yourself It just turns into something else Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Expect nothin' from a loser like me Put up these walls now I can't see All I want, all I want Whatcha gonna do now? Whatcha gonna do? Afraid of failure right from the start I never tried my best It just keeps me apart From all I want, all I want That I should have known better (Ah) And I should have expected more for myself (Ah) And I should have known better You can't hide from yourself It just turns into something else So help me out, lead me away All these memories, take em away So help me out, and lead me away All these memories, please just take em away I guess I shoulda known, I guess I shoulda known better (shoulda known better) I guess I shoulda known, I guess I shoulda known better (shoulda known better) I guess I shoulda known, I guess I shoulda known better (shoulda known better) I guess I shoulda known, I guess I shoulda known
