Built to Spill - Hindsight lyrics

Hindsight's giving me too much memory
There's too much never seen
But, it's always there
Because it's everywhere

Taking my own advice worked out for me nice
But now I come to find
The tricks we play with human brains

They don't want to think about the other side
Is that grass just greener cause it's fake?
Cause that's all that we've been told
Since we were five years old
Is that all we'll ever know?

Hindsight brings me down
It keeps me on the ground
And though I'm never proud
I wouldn't dare if you weren't there

Thing with getting up feels like giving up
Feels like not enough
You eat a crumb and waste a loaf

They don't want to talk about the other side
Where the grass was greener than they said
Cause this doesn't bring to mind
What I'd expect to find
They must be colorblind

What about Canada? What about Canada?
This paradise of pines and ice

Morning comes in freight ships
While you're sleeping
Bad into ideas was no surprise
We'll wait 'til the wild has rights
Then never lock doors at night
And kiss all those wars goodbye
