Certain

I'm writing to you from earth

Star date 20-20 and 4

In the middle of an ocean

And I can't hardly see the shore

It's a hard way to find out

You don't wanna be a sailor

Halfway across

In your mother's trailer

What I'd do to be certain

What I'd do to be certain

Oh-oh

I heard the quasi-psychedelic jester gladiator

On his compound in the flower of the Mexican war

You'll become what you hate if you seek to replace

What you hate, I've never seen it more

It's a hard way to find out

You don't wanna be a horn

When they're already blowing

In the middle of a storm

What I'd do to be certain

What I'd do to be certain

Oh-oh

There's a light beneath the curtain

Where the shadows dance

I can't know, I can't trust it

I can't take the chance

Somedays the sun comes up in spite of me

I'm gonna find it, inside of me

What I'd do to be certain

What I'd do to be certain

Oh-oh

I see that hate has some pep in its step

I would too with that big blank check

All the back-ass preachers out in Oklahoma

Gettin' high, stoned on their own aromas

It's a hard way to find out

It ain't above love

That fear is a comfort

It fits like a glove

What I'd do to be certain

What I'd do to be certain

Oh-oh

There's a light beneath the curtain

Where the shadows dance

I can't know, I can't trust it

I can't take the chance

Somedays the sun comes up in spite of me

I'm gonna find it, inside of me

There's a light beneath the curtain

Where the shadows dance

I can't know, I can't trust it

I can't take the chance

Somedays the sun comes up in spite of me

I'm gonna find it, inside of me

What I'd do to be certain

What I'd do to be certain

Oh-oh
