LYRICS:
Walked when I shoulda run
Ran when I shoulda walked
And don't I know it, and don't I know it
Walked when I shoulda run
And I ran when I shoulda walked
And don't I know it, and don't I know it
You get inside me
Even when you went beside me
And I go into hiding
And I know I never leave it alone
Another round of if-only's
Of all the ways you could know me
How I take time going slowly
Of a time that I did on my own
Still I walked when I shoulda run
And I ran when I shoulda walked
And don't I know it, don't I know it
And don't I know it
Well, I walked when I shoulda run
And I ran when I shoulda walked
And don't I know it, don't I know it
And don't I know it
And your head's in the ocean
Too deep to know where you're goin'
Hoping time can be frozen
And you'll end up where you really belong
But the days keep on rollin'
We live in different moments
And the hurt is unfolding
Everyday that we do and we don't
Still I walked when I shoulda run
And I ran when I shoulda walked
And don't I know it, don't I know it
And don't I know it, don't I know it
Well, I walked when I shoulda run
And I ran when I shoulda walked
And don't I know it, don't I know it
And don't I, don't I, don't I know it, no, no, no, no, no
Sign for what's been
Sign for what never been
The line under what's been
The line for what never been
And the years are collected
I pray that we are regretless
You and I, the connected
You and I and the blood and the bone
