Everyone Knows Better

I know there's a certain amount
To what you're thinking
My hopes never seem to amount
To more than stopping smoking

Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better, oh, yeah

Heroes never seem
To allow for self-expression
Lovers stick around
To allow what they think you're missing

Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway

Looking around to avoid what's in front of you
Good intentions wrapped 'round like some old sweater
A vain hope that it might be good for you

You mind is made, make your mind up
Make your mind up, make your mind up
We like to make the same mistakes

Sunshine
A ray of hope in a hopeless situation
Suntanned
Your reward for the hopeful hours that you spend
Burning

Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone thinks they know better
I'll do it anyway

Looking around to avoid what's in front of you
Good intentions wrapped 'round like some old sweater
A vain hope that it might be good for you
Your mind is made
