If I Knew Then

by Light Years

on Afterlife (2018)

[Verse 1]
I need a little bit, a little more
Just enough to get me up, off the floor
I pushed my confidence out the door
'Cause I don't need it anymore
Remember being innocent and just a kid
Maybe for a minute I could go back again
And take a look at where I've been
And where I won't be again

[Chorus]
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then what I do now
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then what I do now
Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad
(Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad)
Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad

[Verse 2]
Found the Polaroids you used to love
All the old guitars and cameras
Hung the pictures up down the hall
That I can't walk down anymore
I'll see you in a little bit, a little more
You always said that life's too short
To ever give a fuck what they say
Just go on your way

[Chorus]
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then what I do now
If I knew then
If I knew then
If I knew then what I do now
Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad
(Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad)
Maybe everything wouldn't be so bad

[Post-Chorus]
Can you hear me at all?
Out on the other side
I remember it all
It's what keeps me alive

Can you hear me at all?
Out on the other side
I remember it all
It's what keeps me alive

Can you hear me at all?
Out on the other side
I remember it all
It's what keeps me alive

Can you hear me at all?
Out on the other side
I remember it all
It's what keeps me alive

(If I knew then, this all that I get
If I knew then, everything, everything has to end
If I knew then, this all that I get
If I knew then, everything, everything has to end)

Can you hear me at all?
Out on the other side
I remember it all
It's what keeps me alive

Can you hear me at all?
Out on the other side
I remember it all
Can you hear me at all?
