understood

how can i hear

how can i see

when no one really knows how it's gonna be?

you read it in a book

you hope it isn't true

and the next thing you know

it's happening to you

it's been a long time since we took a trip

to the bottom of a canyon in a rocket ship

nothing's resonating in my mind

so i'm doing my best to be unrefined

you can always choose

but you don't

and you could be amused

but you won't

there's no way to figure it out

life's just understood

but really i don't know

but really i don't know

but really i don't know

the deaf hear

the blind see

just different things than you and me

the deaf can hear

the blind can see

that's what i've been told and that's what i believe

but really i don't know

but really i don't know

but really i don't know

you can always choose

but you don't

and you could be amused

but you won't

there's no way to figure this out

life's just understood

it's been a long way

since the start of it

and part of the problem is. you're such a part of it

seems like whatever we do is null

why can't we ever just be left alone?

the blind see

the deaf hear

exactly what is not clear

the blind can see and the deaf can hear

finding out what is my greatest fear

you wanna move around and you wanna stay still

you wanna have a life

but not too real

don't know what it means

but i know what it's like

to be floating down the canyon in a rocket bike

but really i don't know

but really i don't know

but really i don't know
