Sweet Not Knowing

If I had a burning flame it’d burn bright for you

It’d burn bright both day and night, never hiding the truth

But here I am in all my pity and I’m not sure what to do

I ain’t got no burning flame and my life-light’s almost through

Sometimes you fake it, sometimes you make it

I guess I’ll keep hanging on for another song or two

And all the glory, from all the stories

I can’t be proud, it’s been too long, and I don’t know what is true

If I had a life worth living what would that be like

How would I even know and what gives me the right

If I had all life’s answers what fun would that be

I embrace you sweet not knowing where I’m bound to be

Sometimes you fake it, sometimes you make it

Guess I’ll keep hanging on for another song or two

And all the glory from all the stories

I can’t be proud, it’s been too long, and I don’t know what is true
