I hear this old story before
|
If people keep appealing for the metaphors
|
Don't leave much up to the imagination,
|
So I, wanna give this imagery back
|
No it just aint so easy like that
|
So, I turn the page and read the story again
|
And again and again
|
It just seems the same, with a diff. 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 but confusing
|
Were trying but where is this all leading
|
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 thats 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
|
Just seems the same
|
Give it a diff. name
|
We're beggin 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 but confusing
|
Helping, we're builign
|
And we're growing
|
Never Know
|
|
Knock knock on the 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 dont believe in what this one feeding
|
Its got no feeling
|
So I read it again
|
And again and again
|
Just seems the same
|
Too many different names
|
Our hearts are strong our hands are weak
|
We'll always be competing never knowing
|
|
Never knowing
|
Shocking but we're nothing
|
We're just moments
|
We're Clever but we're clueless
|
We're just human
|
Amusing but confusing
|
But the truth is
|
All we got is questions
|
We'll Never Know
|
Never Know
|
Never Know
|
