THIS IS HELL - Retrospect lyrics

rate me

If ever we were innocent, that time that came and went.<br>

Looking back we'll hang our heads and say, "All things change."<br>

At the start of this you have no idea.<br>

Barring precognition you just couldn't know how merciless all of this <br>

would seem from here and now but regret is just a game for fools,<br>

Barring hindsight there would still be disbelief lingering, bearing down.<br>

In retrospect, we can laugh at how obvious it is when the pillars go<br>

But when it's all collapsing around your feet it seems you're always the last to know.<br>
