[Verse]
C#m7
I heard this old story before where the
F#m7
people keep on killing for their metaphors
B7 E
Don't leave much up to the imagination so I
C#m7
Wanna give this imagery back but I
F#m7
Know it just ain't so easy like that so
B7 E
I turn the page, I read the story again and again and again
[Pre-chorus]
A7
Sure seems the same
F#m7
with a different name
B7
We're breaking and rebuilding and we're growing, always guessing, never
[Chorus]
C#m7 F#m7
Know - ing
B7 E
We're shocking but we're nothing, we're just
C#m7 F#m7
Mo - ments
B7 E
We're clever but we're clueless, we're just
C#m7 F#m7
Hu - man
B7 E
Amusing and confusing
C#m7 F#m7
Try - ing
B7 E
but where is this all leading, we'll never know
[Verse]
It all happened so much
faster than you could say disaster
Wanna take a time lapse and look at it backwards
Find the last word, 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
Moments just combusting
Feel certain but we'll never never know
[Pre-chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Knowing
We're shocking but we're nothing, we're just
Moments
We're clever but we're clueless, we're just
Human
Amusing and confusing
Helping
We're building and we're growing, never know
Never know
Never know
Never know
[Verse]
Knock knock on the door to door
Tell you that their metaphor is better than yours
And you can either sink or swim
Things are looking pretty grim
If you don't believe in what they're spoon feeding
It's got no feeling
So I read it again and again and again
[Pre-chorus]
Sure seems the same
So many different names
Our hearts are strong, our heads are weak, we'll always be competing, never
[Chorus]
Knowing
We're shocking but we're nothing, we're just
Moments
We're clever but we're clueless, we're just
Human
Amusing and confusing but the
truth is
All we got is questions, we'll never know
[Outro]
Never know
Never know
Never know
