Looking back on brighter days
Wondering how things ever got this way
I turn my back on things I need


You see I always knew better
Yeah, I always knew better

I always knew better, now what's changed?

It's a sign of broken times

When I feel like breaking down in front of you to cry
I try to fight for your mind


But you always knew better
Yeah, you always knew better
You always knew better, now what's changed?


Whatever I make, I make mistakes
Whatever I build, I break

Whatever I pour, evaporates
Whatever I build, I break


When you gonna cut me down to size?
Cause I know this life I'm living is all a lie
And little white lies always multiply


I always knew better
I always knew better

I always knew better, now what's changed?



Whatever I make, I make mistakes
Whatever I build, I break
Whatever I pour, evaporates

Whatever I build, I break

Looking back on brighter days

Wondering how things ever got this way
