Lyrics I Might Have Been Wrong - Field Music

I confess I might have been wrong
But it's not clear right now
What I could have done differently
I held my principles close
But the distinction
With hubris can be tough
It's easier in retrospect

But either way
My best was not enough
My limits laid bare
I fix what I can
But I'm acutely aware
I shouldn't promise too much

I'll task myself to ignore
The self-defeating predilections
Drawing close inexorably
And idly scrabble among
Lightly floated weights
And pearls of wisdom
Sincere remembrances
But they don't change

That my best was not enough
My limits laid bare
I fix what I can
But I'm acutely aware
I shouldn't promise too much

My best is not enough
My premise was poor
Left with what's left
And nothing more
