I set out to make something honest
You laughed at me when I said it out loud
And I tried my best to keep my promise
But my voice was just a whisper in a crowd
And I guess I felt bad that I wasn't being grateful
I didn't think I deserved the chance you took on me
And I didn't realize that when I signed
That dotted line i was giving away a part of me
That I wanted to keep
And it was too good to be true
And I wish I knew what I know now
I know just what I'd do
If I could redo it all somehow
And I remember the knot in my stomach
And the long lonely walks with headphones on
Crying in the booth, I couldn't help it
I started to hate all my own songs
And after the fact you called my feelings arbitrary
You said that I was both too specific and to vague
You wrote that there wasn't anything to latch onto
And I was gasping for air between a couple of cliches
And it was too good to be true
And I wish I knew what I know now
I know just what I'd do
If I could redo it all somehow
And I want to know
What more did you expect from me?
Under the control of some old dudes from Mississippi
And it was too good to be true
And I wish I knew what I know now
I know just what I'd do
If I could redo
It all somehow
And it was too good to be true
And I wish I knew what I know now
I know just what I'd do
If I could redo it all
