Lyrics of Could Have Been Me by The Struts
verse
Don't wanna live as an untold story
Rather go out in a blaze of glory
I can't hear you, I don't fear you
verse
I'll live now 'cause the bad die last
Dodging bullets with your broken past
I can't hear you, I don't fear you, now
pre-chorus
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh, oh, oh
chorus
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
verse
Don't wanna live as an unsung melody
I'd rather listen to the silence telling me
I can't hear you, I won't fear you
verse
Don't wanna wake up on a Monday morning
The thought of work is getting my skin crawling
I can't fear you, I don't hear you now
pre-chorus
Wrapped in your regret
What a waste of blood and sweat
Oh, oh, oh
chorus
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
bridge

Just better (never look back and say)
hook
(Could have been me)
It could have been me
(It could have been me)
It could have been me
chorus
I wanna taste love and pain
Wanna feel pride and shame
I don't wanna take my time
Don't wanna waste one line
I wanna live better days
Just better
Never look back and say
Could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
Yeah
