Lyrics for Song: Never Know
Lyrics for Album: In Between Dreams (2005)
I heard this old story before
Where the people keep on killing for their metaphors
But donÂ’t leave much up to the imagination
So I want to give this imagery back
But I know it just ainÂ’t so easy like that
So I turn the page and read the story again and again and again
It sure seems the same with a different name
WeÂ’re breaking and rebuilding and weÂ’re growing, always guessing
Never knowing
WeÂ’re shocking but weÂ’re nothing
WeÂ’re just moments, weÂ’re clever but weÂ’re clueless
WeÂ’re just human, amusing and confusing
WeÂ’re trying, but where is this all leading?
WeÂ’ll never know
It all happened so much faster than you can say disaster
Want to take a time-lapse and look at it backwards
Find the last word and maybe thatÂ’s just the answer that weÂ’re after
But after all weÂ’re just a bubble in a boiling pot
Just one breath in a chain of thought
WeÂ’re moments just combusting
We feel certain but weÂ’ll never, never know
It sure seems the same, give it a different name
WeÂ’re begging and weÂ’re needing, and weÂ’re trying, and weÂ’re breathing
Never knowing
WeÂ’re shocking but weÂ’re nothing
WeÂ’re just moments, weÂ’re clever but weÂ’re clueless
WeÂ’re just human, amusing and confusing
WeÂ’re helping, rebuilding and weÂ’re growing
Never know
Knock, knock, coming door to door
To tell you that their metaphor is better than yours
And you can either sink or swim and things are looking pretty grim
If you donÂ’t believe in what theyÂ’re spoon-feeding
ItÂ’s got no feeling so I read it again and again and again
It sure seems the same, so many different names
Our hearts are strong, our heads are weak, weÂ’ll always be competing
Never knowing
WeÂ’re shocking but weÂ’re nothing
WeÂ’re just moments, weÂ’re clever but weÂ’re clueless
WeÂ’re just human, amusing, confusing
But the truth is, all we got are questions
WeÂ’ll never know
