Would've, Could've, Should've

Lyrics

If you would've blinked, then I would've
 Looked away at the first glance
 If you tasted poison, you could've
 Spit me out at the first chance
 If I was some paint, did it splatter
 On a promising grown man
 And if I was a child, did it matter
 If you got to wash your hands
 Oh, all I used to do was pray
 Would've, could've, should've
 If you'd never looked my way
 I would've stayed
 On my knees
 And I damn sure never would've danced with the devil
 At nineteen, and the god's honest truth is that the pain was heaven
 And now that I'm grown
 I'm scared of ghosts
 Memories feel like weapons
 And now that I know
 I wish you'd left me wondering
 If you never touched me, I would've
 Gone along with the righteous
 If I never blushed then they could've
 Never whispered about this
 And if you never saved me from boredom
 I could've gone on as I was
 But lord, you made me feel important
 And then you tried to erase us
 Oh, you're a crisis of my faith
 Would've, could've, should've
 If I'd only played it safe
 I would've stayed on my knees
 And I damn sure never would've danced with the devil
 At nineteen, and the god's honest truth is that the pain was heaven
 And now that I'm grown
 I'm scared of ghosts
 Memories feel like weapons
 And now that I know
 I wish you'd left me wondering
 God rest my soul
 I miss who I used to be
 The tomb won't close
 Stained glass windows in my mind
 I regret you all the time
 Can't let this go
 I fight with you in my sleep
 The wound won't close
 I keep on waiting for a sign
 I regret you all the time
 If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
 Years of tearing down our banners
 You and I
 Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
 Give me back my girlhood
 It was mine first
 And I damn sure never would've danced with the devil
 At nineteen, and the god's honest truth is that the pain was heaven
 And now that I'm grown
 I'm scared of ghosts
 Memories feel like weapons
 And now that I know
 I wish you'd left me wondering
 God rest my soul
 I miss who I used to be
 The tomb won't close
 Stained glass windows in my mind
 I regret you all the time
 I can't let this go
 I fight with you in my sleep
 The wound won't close
 I keep on waiting for a sign
 I regret you all the time
 Oh, god rest my soul
 I miss who I used to be
 The tomb won't close
 Stained-glass windows in my mind
 I regret you all the time
 I can't let this go
 I fight with you in my sleep
 The wound won't close
 I keep on waiting for a sign
 I regret you all the time
