The Burnells

Lyrics

THERE ARE THINGS YOU THINK YOU KNOW
AND THINGS YOU KNOW YOU NEVER WILL
AND OTHER THINGS THAT TAKE AND LEAVE
LEAVE YOU UNFULFILLED

IF INTIMATIONS LEAVE YOU COLD
ARE YOU FROZEN OUT FOR GOOD?
IS IT REAL OR JUST A WAY OF STAKING YOUR CLAIM
TO BEING MISUNDERSTOOD?

Chorus
DON’T TELL ME HOW TO FEEL
I CAN SEE FOR MYSELF WHAT IS REAL
EVERYONE WANTS EVERYTHING THEIR WAY
BUT THAT’S SOMETHING NO ONE WANTS TO SAY

NOW YOU’RE DRIFTING IN AND OUT
THE LINES ARE DRAGGING SLACK
THINGS YOU ONCE TOOK FOR GRANTED ARE GONE
AND THEY AIN’T COMING BACK

ARE YOU FACTORING THE FUTURE
OR ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PAST?
DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE? WAS THIS THING REALLY
REALLY BUILT TO LAST?

Chorus

SUDDENLY, YOU REALIZE
THAT EVERYTHING IS STANDING STILL
THAT THERE ARE THINGS YOU THINK YOU KNOW AND THINGS
YOU KNOW YOU NEVER WILL

{Instrumental verse}
