I Should Have Known by Elephantelephone Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I should have known
I thought you were everything I was looking for
But I was wrong
I'm usually wrong

So I write songs
And pretend that I've learned lessons
But I apparently don't
Keeps happening
Over and over and over and over and over

[Chorus]
Sorry for the doors I never opened
And the love songs that I never wrote
I should have paid closer attention to the way that I spoke
I need to take a real deep breath
I need to open up my eyes

I really need to see the country
I need to find a new disguise
[Verse 2]
I should have known
I lost track of my head when I met you
My mind was blown
But I was probably just stoned

And now we're alone
And no matter how we throw ourselves
We all land alone
We all just end up

[Chorus]
Sorry for the doors I never opened
And the love songs that I never wrote
I should have paid closer attention to the way that I spoke
I need to take a real deep breath
I need to open up my eyes

I really need to see the country
I need to find a new disguise (x3)
