And all our sins come back to haunt us in the end
To hang around and tap us on the shoulder
And smile silent
It's all implied
"You'll die trying to live this down.
You might as well forget it."
Still, i'm convinced wondering what if
Is the worst thing there is

So we bottled and shelved all our regrets
Let them ferment and came back to our senses
Drove back home and slept a few days
Woke up and laughed at how stupid we used to be

And all these lines
Fall short of what i had in mind
A failed attempt
To capsulize a feeling
So i just try
And fail and try and try again
And someday i swear i'm going to get it
Because i'm convinced that giving in is the worst thing there is

So we bottled and shelved all our regrets
Let them ferment and came back to our senses
Drove back home and slept a few days
Woke up and laughed at how stupid we used to be

We'll get over it
Sad, strong, safe and sober
We'll move forward
And know where we went wrong
But "you can't go home again."

We'll get over it
Sad, strong, safe and sober
We'll move forward
And know where we went wrong
But "you can't go home again."

So we bottled and shelved all our regrets
Let them ferment and came back to our senses
Drove back home and slept a few days
Woke up and laughed at how stupid we used to be
