Never Know

I heard this old story before Where people keep appealing for the metaphors Don't leave much up to the imagination So I wanna give this imagery back when I Know it just ain'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 We're breaking and rebuilding And we're growing, always guessing Never knowing Shocking but we're nothing We're just moments We're clever but we're clueless We're just human Amusing and confusing We're trying but where is this all leading We'll never know It all happened so much faster than you could say disaster Wanna take a time-lapse and look at it backwards from the last one And maybe that's just the answer that we're after But after all we're just a bubble in a boiling pot Just one breath in a chain of thought The moments just combusting Feel certain but we'll never, never know Sure seems the same Give it a different name We're begging and we're needing And we're trying and we're breathing Never knowing Shocking but we're nothing We're just moments We're clever but we're clueless We're just human Amusing and confusing We're helping We're building and we're growing You never know You never know Never know, never know Knock, knock on my door to door Tell ya that the metaphor is better than yours And you can either sink or swim Things are looking pretty grim If you don't believe in what this one feeding It's got no feeling So I read it again and again and again Sure seems the same Too many different names Our hearts are strong, our hands are weak We'll always be competing never knowing Shocking but we're nothing We're just moments We're clever but we're clueless We're just human Amusing, confusing But the truth is all we got is questions We'll never know Never know Never know Never know
