I fear
I can't switch gears
So I wound up here
I can't tell you
But I want to
You can be an atom bomb
I'll be the war
I can show you
And I want to
And I'll depart again
From my cardigan
It's no use now that you're gone
So I'll sit at this piano
And rip myself part
Write another boring song

And so
I'm confronted once again
By people who say they know
But I've learned
That the only way to cope
Is to know
That we really don't

Some white noise and a heartbeat
Are all I can remember
I can't tell you
But I need to
A matchstick lit in a dark room
Can do so much
I can show you
And I need to
And though I was writer
This was a letter
I could never send
I thought it over
Ripped it up around the corner
As I went
To your house
You don't live there anymore

And so
I'm confronted once again
By people who say they know
But I've learned
That the only way to cope
Is to know
That we really don't

So write me a story
Write me a better one
I need it
I need you
I need you to feel what it taste like
What it looks like

And so
I'm confronted once again
By people who say they know
But I've learned
That the only way to cope
Is to know
That we really don't
