Never Know

I heard this old story before
Where the people keep on killing for their metaphors, but
Don't leave much up to the imagination

So I wanna give this imagery back
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 just 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 but 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

Just seems the same, give it a different 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 buildin' and we're growing never know
Never know, never know

Knock knock on the door to door
Tell 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 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
