Shouldn’t Matter but It Does lyrics

[Verse 1]
Shoulda been open
Shoulda done more
Shoulda learned a lesson from the year before
Shoulda been honest
Shoulda just cried
Shoulda told me there was nothing left inside

[Chorus]
Now the road keeps rolling on forever
And the years keep pulling us apart
We lost something, I still wonder what it was
It shouldn't matter
Shouldn't matter, but it does

[Verse 2]
You shoulda just broken
You shoulda come clean
You shoulda been sad instead of being so f*cking mean
It shouldn't be easy
But it shouldn't be hard
You shouldn't be a stranger in your own backyard

[Chorus]
Now the road keeps rolling on forever
And the years keep pulling us apart
I know it's over, I'm just saying this because
It shouldn't matter
Shouldn't matter, but it does
[Verse 3]
I shouldn't be angry
I shouldn't hold on
I shouldn't leave you messages in every little song
It could have been always
It could have been me
We could have been busy naming baby number three

[Chorus]
Now the road keeps rolling on forever
And the years keep pulling us apart
If it's on someone then I blame the both of us
It shouldn't matter
Shouldn't matter, but it
Shouldn't matter
Shouldn't matter, but it
Shouldn't matter
Shouldn't matter, but it does
