Dagger Earrings Songtext
von Ross Newhouse

Some mornings, I feel you, in the cold tile, beneath my bare feet
In the vacant ends of my bed, in the cold wind, in the absence of heat
Some days I remember your dagger earrings, and I smile
How I should have seen them as a sign
As I′m dizzy, cut wide
In a pool of blood
And mud
And mire

If it wasn't for hindsight
I′d be blind
Wouldnt I?
Wouldn't I?

If it wasn't for hindsight
I′d be blind
Wouldnt I?
Wouldn′t I?


Some nights, I stay out, past the sunset, just to see my breath
To know, that I'm still here, to know there′s a purpose for my chest

Some days I remember your dagger earrings, and I smile
How I should have seen them as a sign
How they glistened in the light
How I haven't seen them for a while

If it wasn′t for hindsight
I'd be blind
Wouldn′t I?
Wouldn't I?

If it wasn't for hindsight
I′d be blind
Wouldn′t I?
Wouldn't I?

Wouldn′t I just love to get you back
Make this hurt less
Wouldn't eye for an eye not make us wiser at that
Only blinder in fact

Some days I remember your dagger earrings, and I smile
