Regret Lyrics
Regret! Regret!
Regret! Regret!
First you'll see me on the news then never again
Regret! Regret!
I'm rolling in my grave
Regret! Regret!
Feeling like a grenade
Regret! Regret!
Maybe you're the coldest
Regret! Regret!
If you never felt it
Regret! Regret!
Maybe you're the luckiest
Regret! Regret!
If you never did it
Regret! Regret!
But did you imagine it
In a different way?
Did you imagine it
(But did you imagine it)
In a different way?
Did you ever watch your life slide out of your hands?
Regret! Regret!
You wish it never had
Regret! Regret!
But all of that's in the past
Regret! Regret!
Maybe I'm a human?
Regret! Regret!
Trying to click and doom man
Regret! Regret!
Or maybe I'm automaton
Regret! Regret!
Oh how'd it all go so wrong
Regret! Regret!
But did you imagine it
In a different way?
Did you imagine it
(But did you imagine it)
In a different way?
Did you think that everything
Everything would change?
Did you imagine it
In a different way?
Regret! Regret!
Hahahahaha
Regret! Regret!
Maybe you're the luckiest
Regret! Regret!
If you never felt it
Regret! Regret!
But did you imagine it
In a different way?
Did you imagine it
(But did you imagine it)
In a different way?
Did you think that everything
Everything would change?
Did you imagine it
In a different way?
Regret! Regret!
Regret! Regret!
Regret! Regret!
I'm rolling in my grave
Regret! Regret!
Feeling like a grenade
Regret! Regret!
Maybe you're the coldest
Regret! Regret!
If you never felt it
Regret! Regret!
Maybe you're the luckiest
Regret! Regret!
If you never did it
Regret! Regret!
In a different way?
Did you imagine it
(But did you imagine it)
In a different way?
Regret! Regret!
You wish it never had
Regret! Regret!
But all of that's in the past
Regret! Regret!
Maybe I'm a human?
Regret! Regret!
Trying to click and doom man
Regret! Regret!
Or maybe I'm automaton
Regret! Regret!
Oh how'd it all go so wrong
Regret! Regret!
In a different way?
Did you imagine it
(But did you imagine it)
In a different way?
Did you think that everything
Everything would change?
Did you imagine it
In a different way?
Hahahahaha
Regret! Regret!
Maybe you're the luckiest
Regret! Regret!
If you never felt it
Regret! Regret!
In a different way?
Did you imagine it
(But did you imagine it)
In a different way?
Did you think that everything
Everything would change?
Did you imagine it
In a different way?

"It's not actually [about girls going to Syria]. Someone wrote that in one of the early interviews, and everyone else copied it, which is understandable, but it's not the crack. I wanted the album to be littered with predictions and clues that I was going to become a terrorist... become the other. I wanted people to piece the album back together after it'd finished and find these clues, and one of them is in "Regret" - this feeling that I'm going to do something soon and you're all going to hear about it. I wanted that threat to open the song and be a constant unnerving thing throughout the record. I can see how does work in the context of girls going to Syria, or that kid that just went and got killed though.
All that feels so local to me. This recurrent issue with ISIS, there's people like Jihadi John... he's from England, some of the people he's killed were from very near me. Those guys, very ordinary guys, were just thrust onto the world stage, and it's fucking crazy... "Regret" is about the importance of the individual, as in one guy's knife against one guy's neck becoming global news. The power of that is insane. It's the most powerful thing you can do on Earth, apart from kill yourself, I suppose.
Lots of things go into the song, but it comes out quite benign in the end. I think about all this a lot more when I actually write lyrics down. It's more a song about regretting mistakes and wishing things were different."

@qwertyfox that makes sense with the clues he is gonna do something soon because of the 'did you think that everything everything would change'. get it? "everything everything" would change' ?
