hindsight's giving me   too much memory   there's too much never seen   but it's always there   cuz it's everywhere      taking my own advice   worked out for me nice   but now I come to find   the tricks we play   with human brains      they don't want to think about the other side   is that grass just greener cuz it's fake   cuz that's all that we've been told   since we were five years old   is that all we'll ever know      hindsight brings me down   it keeps me on the ground   and though I'm never proud   I wouldn't dare   if you weren't there      the thing with gettin' up   feels like giving up   feels like not enough   you eat a crumb   and waste a loaf      they don't want to talk about the other side   where the grass was greener than they said   cuz this doesn't bring to mind   what I'd expect to find   they must be color blind      what about canada   this paradise   of pines and ice      morning comes in freight ships while you're sleeping   bad into ideas was no surprise   we'll wait till the wild has rights   the never lock doors at night   and kiss all those wars goodbye
