Hindsight Songtext
von Tom Nethersole

Oh God, I′m nineteen
Got no routine
Don't know who to go to
Could tell a friend
But what are they meant to do?
Cos I′m a burden
Behind the curtain
Lies a boy
Who's been hurting
Never certain what he enjoys

Could've been different
Would′ve been an interest
Should′ve been ignorant
But I didn't speak


If I had my time again
There′s so much I would have said
Advice I would have asked you for
An extra hand in this tug of war
But I guess hindsight's 20/20
When your glass is half empty
Wish the past would change its ways
But we′re exiting in different lanes

Left a note inside a coat I hoped you'd see
Something about being too much I had to leave
Cos I′m a mess
And you'll regret
Getting so close
So I packed my bags and now I'm heading for the coast

Could′ve been different
Would′ve been difficult
Should've been into it
But I didn′t stay

If I had my time again
I'd be more than just your friend
I′d be everything you need and more
Allow myself to be adored
But I guess hindsight's 20/20
And we′re just doing what's trendy
In the moment though there's few
Until we′re old enough to have a view


But if the end is coming near
And we won′t be here next year
If there is a fixed and settled outcome
Maybe hold on, count your blessings
Take a breathe and your possessions
Cos we won't be here when tomorrow night does come
There′ll be no hindsight 20/20
Just you and I with plenty of time to waste away
Until we're left in yesterday
