hindsight Lyrics

Sold my soul off to a toll box under streetlights in the nighttime

In the change box dropped a new one, it was tainted by the limelight

Took a night train in the dusk rain to dealer for my migraine

Got abducted by a spirit in the cellar it was contained

Now I live life in the twilight and the cold nights never freeze me

And my skin is so distorted by the dark haze in the foyer

Where i hang from chandeliers all candle coated and contorted

Don't you see me, just a ghost now, dear mother, are you let down?

All at once I see, calling out to me

Remnants of my dreams, chanting a story

A bridge yet to be passed, the last one didn't last

In fires of my making, to ash I have forsaken

In the wind, drift away

Breathing in their smoke and say I won't light another

But my breath's made of gasoline

Fingers like tinder and matches that spark up and fuck up this memory

And all at once I see, calling out to me

Try on another, I'm sure it won't hurt this time

We see the bright light in hindsight

Are we chosen or imposed on

Conditioned synthetic wishes

Do we choose them, or refuse them

When we achieve independency

Control was never ours either way

On god's right hand is a prophet

And we're denied, until next time

All at once I see, beckoning to me

Memories of a broken trust bond

Gut feelings feel like a shotgun

Regurgitated and fated to be sedated

Mind jaded, serrated till day ends and I fall

We see the bright light in hindsight

Are we chosen or imposed on

Conditioned synthetic wishes

Do we choose them, or refuse them

When we achieve independency

Control was never ours either way

On god's right hand is a prophet

And we're denied, for the last time
