Lyrics

If you knew what I knew
And you're reaching your rock bottom
Start anew and the past is long forgotten

If you knew what I knew
And the floor is warped and rotten
Paint it blue put your favourite summer frock on

Take a train and see the sights
Throw perspective on your plight
Dream of heroes in the night
When life's a friend you love who turns around and bites

If you knew what I knew
And all gains appear ill-gotten
It's not you
You'll avoid the path they trod on

If you knew what I knew
Feel afraid to face tomorrow
We all do
You'll be stronger for your sorrow

If you knew what I knew
Find a sleeve to wear your heart on
See it through
Don't avoid what feels too foreign

We all know this crazy life
Can't take your soul and squeeze it dry
Your life can change before your eyes
