How can I hear, how can I see When no one really knows how it's gonna be? You read it in a book, you hope it isn't true And the next thing you know, it's happening to you It's been a long time since we took a trip To the bottom of a canyon in a rocketship Nothing's resonating in my mind So I'm doing my best to be unrefined You can always choose, but you don't And you could be amused, but you won't There's no way to figure it out Life's just understood But really, I don't know But really, I don't know Really, I don't know The deaf hear, the blind see Just different things than you and me The deaf can hear, the blind can see That's what I've been told and that's what I believe Really, I don't know Really, I don't know Really, I don't know You can always choose, but you don't And you could be amused, but you won't There's no way to figure it out Life's just understood It's been a long way since the start of it And part of the problem is you're such a part of it Seems like whatever we do is null Why can't we ever just be left alone? The blind see, the deaf hear Exactly what is not clear The blind can see, the deaf can hear Finding out what is my greatest fear You wanna move around, you wanna stay still You wanna have a life but not too real Don't know what it means, but I know what it's like To be floating down the canyon in a rocket bike Really, I don't know Really, I don't know Really, I don't know
