lyrics

i've been thinking why must we trust in something bigger than us
did we think before we learned to speak
is language merely critique
is there logic to be found in what we seek
did we think before we learned to speak
and in a lifetime is nothing new
is the quest defined by you
can you follow any route so long as you strive
tell me does it really matter if you never arrive

nobody, nobody knows

everyone fears passing the years
like a poet waiting for the rhyme
nobody holds you safe against
safe against the passing of time
and nobody knows the way life grows
the colour of the mountains when it snows
and nobody feels the way you do
even though they’ve been there too
and nobody can tell you right from wrong
you won’t find truth in the words of a song
just observation, inspiration, blind creation

nobody, nobody knows

in the flow of a nation’s tongue
there’s a point when belief becomes
all we have and we kneel
each day bring me hope
innocence has left this place
a burden has lined this face
with the passing of youth the acquisition of truth
innocence has left this face
like a fatalist i’m breathing in
happy to exist i’m breathing in
finding pleasure in everything i do
holding on to love instead of you
when i’m breezy and the air smells sweet
everywhere everyone everything complete

nobody, nobody knows

i've been thinking why must...
