Lyrics
[Verse]
Someone shoulda told me how to tie a decent knot
How to fix a leaky faucet when things fall apart a lot
How to stand up for myself
Hold my ground and fight
Instead I stared at shadows learning wrong from right
[Verse 2]
Someone shoulda told me how to love and not to run
How to patch up broken hearts when the damage is done
How to be a better man when the world’s looking cold
But all I had were echoes
No hand for me to hold
[Chorus]
Somebody shoulda taught me what it means to be strong
How to write my story when the pages felt all wrong
I stumbled through the darkness while you stayed far away
Someone shoulda told me how to make it through the day
[Verse 3]
Someone shoulda shown me how to shave my cheek so clean
How to drive on empty gas
Chase a different dream
How to build a steady bridge when the river’s flowing wild
But all the bridges burned down before I was a child
[Bridge]
Now the mirror shows a man made of scars and calloused hands
Every wrinkle's like a lesson from the things I understand
I’ve been crawling in the dirt 'cause I had nowhere to stand
Thought you'd be the lighthouse
But you turned away my span
[Chorus]
Somebody shoulda told me what it means to be strong
How to write my story when the pages felt all wrong
I stumbled through the darkness while you stayed far away
Someone shoulda told me how to make it through the day
