What I Know Now Lyrics - Dog's Eye View

There are no angels 

Only patronizing saints 

Who would gladly keep you out of trouble 

But never let you forget 

That you came 

There are no favors 

There are no truly kind deeds 

It's just pay now and pay more later 

And we'll help you get what you need 

And when I find myself 

In times of trouble 

Usually give up nothing to win 

And nothing to lose 

I'll wish you luck 

There are no rules here 

Just piles of mistakes 

That we say we've learned from 

Then we go ahead and make 

Faith is a lazy way of trying 

To get what we want 

Without doing anything at all 

To help bring it along 

And when I find myself 

In times of trouble 

Usually give up nothing to win 

And nothing to lose 

I'll just wish you luck 

And did I want the freedom 

To be myself 

Or the freedom to fuck around 

Did I just want the freedom to fail 

Without bringing you down? 

I thought I loved you 

But now I know 

I was just confused 

And going through the emotions 

Until we were both 

Completely bruised 

I hope I'm happy because 

We both know I'm not kind 

I just keep kicking up my heels 

Without thinking of you 

Standing behind me 

And when I find myself 

In times of trouble 

I usually give up nothing to win 

And nothing to lose 

You know it just gets hard to choose 

And when I find myself 

In times of trouble 

Always just give up 

And I don't know what to tell you 

Well I know what I'd like to tell you 

I'd like to call you up and tell you 

What I know now 

What I know now 

What I know
