What You Know
[1st v:]
The tide
Is rolling in
Over turning
Every shell
That hides
What no one can see
Inside
Calming blue
Brings on a darkness
That you find
Revealing
All that is true
Its clear
Its all there
No need to fear
No more brought on
Hidden....tears
What is on the side
Is exactly
What has turned it all
Upside down
Hold on.... let go
Keep on....
Trying to figure out....
Do you really
Really want to know
[1st ch:]
The train is running
So slow
Upon these fast tracks
The winds blow in
Everything that changes
Never fear
Time always
Always
Rearranges....everything
What you think you know
What you believe in time
You'll learn....
Then perhaps....one day
You just may know
Its up
Its down
Its maybe....perhaps
Oh well
It could be
It should be
Maybe....possibly
Too late
Too late
Now what
Where did it all go
Its not what you considered
Its got to be....
Perhaps....
What you already know
[2nd v:]
Question....
Question what
Doubt yourself
Then you give way too much
Time for
Regrets to make space
High upon
Your hidden shelf
Just when
When....when
Do you know
Its right
Its meant to be
Its just where it all needs to be
Watch and learn
Ignore
And get burned
The tides
Will always....always
Keep turning
And you
Open your eyes.... your mind
So you'll always keep learning
And yeah
Oh yes
Yes you will know
Which way..... to go
You'll learn
That second guessing yourself
Doubting yourself
Now
You're making excuses
For which way you turn
Of course its all we do
Finding the light
That shines so bright
Knowing....hopefully
What is true
Finding the answer
Its not finding it....
Its finding.... you
All you know
What is true is all in you
Exactly
Just what....
You already.... knew
[2nd ch:]
The train is running
So slow
Upon these fast tracks
The winds blow in
Everything that changes
Never fear
Time always
Always
Rearranges.... everything
Try to figure out
Will you ever make sense out of
What you know....
What you think you know
What you believe in time
You'll learn....
Then know
Its up
Its down
Its maybe.... perhaps
Oh well....
It could be
It should be
Maybe.... possibly
Too late
Too late
Now what
Where did it all go
Its not what you considered
Its got to be
Its all just got to be
Just.... what you know

Inspired: By all those special moments in life that keep revealing that we never know just what we think we do..... life is all about learning, keeping your mind....and heart open to comprehend, what the majority of the time, we do....but sometimes , do not 'want' to understand.... and a huge amount of common sense to know when we are lying to ourselves to make excuses for what we knew better!
