about

A song for when you know that you don't know.

Produced by Cliff

lyrics

Oh you think you’re someone clever
You’re the brightest one in the room
But no fortune lasts forever
And your time is coming soon

You try to cheat the climb
Read between the lines
Peace will always evade you
Patterns grip your mind
Leave them all behind
Find the truth that can save you

A humble mind fills the heart with laughter
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
You never know what may happen after
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know

Like a scientist you planned it
Each piece under control
But you could never understand it, no
No one man can see the whole

Limited perspective
Yields the wrong objective
You can’t force the world under
Let the sweet refrain
Free your soul from pain;
Shout it louder than thunder

A humble mind fills the heart with laughter
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
You never know what may happen after
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know

There’ll be times
When all your plans
Fall through your hands
You can’t escape it
Oh, can’t you see
A little humility
Makes it easier to face it

A humble mind fills the heart with laughter
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
You never know what may happen after
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know

A humble mind fills the heart with laughter
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
You never know what may happen after
So say I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
