Should Have Known Better - Live

Lyrics

I should have known better
 To see what I could see
 My black shroud
 Holding down my feelings
 A pillar for my enemies
 I should have wrote a letter
 And grieve what I happen to grieve
 My black shroud
 I never trust my feelings
 I waited for the remedy
 When I was three, three maybe four
 She left us at that video store
 Be my rest, be my fantasy
 I'm light as a feather
 I'm bright as the Oregon breeze
 My black shroud
 Frightened by my feelings
 I only want to be a relief
 No, I'm not a go-getter
 The demon had a spell on me
 My black shroud
 Captain of my feelings
 The only thing I want to believe
 When I was three, and free to explore
 I saw her face on the back of the door
 Be my vest, be my fantasy
 I should have known better
 Nothing can be changed
 The past is still the past
 The bridge to nowhere
 I should've wrote a letter
 Explaining what I feel, that empty feeling
 Don't back down, concentrate on seeing
 The breakers in the bar, the neighbor's greeting
 My brother had a daughter
 The beauty that she brings, illumination
 Don't back down, there is nothing left
 The breakers in the bar, no reason to live
 I'm a fool in the fetter
 Rose of Aaron's beard, where you can reach me
 Don't back down: nothing can be changed
 Cantilever bridge, the drunken sailor
 My brother had a daughter
 The beauty that she brings, illumination
