It's the best route in the motel from the nights that came before when I can't tell what my money's paying for
As the sky light up to go, never down nor up to go
Things I'd rather never know
It's the tall height of a bumpy flight and the pass of the taste, or a stage fright that gives me shaking knees
It's the worry everyone stows, sometimes it's hard to let go of things I'd rather never know
It's my unknown, it's my dismiss
Some call ignorance, I call a little bliss
It's how are you's, to and from the things I'd rather never know
A long trip on a space ship of never rocks around the sun
I stay here to get a better grip on this world
Closed doors to keyholes to back rooms you can't go
Things I'd rather never know
It's my unknown, it's my dismiss
Some call ignorance, I call a little bliss
It's how are you's, to and from things I'd rather never know
It's not that I, it's not that I, it's not that I don't wonder sometimes
Did I try? Did I try? But I tried to keep my head a place I'll bring my mind to
On the doorstep of my last breath and how's it gonna end
Was it real or was it all pretend?
With this needle and thread that I sow, a blanket and a pillow of things I'd rather never know
Things I'd rather never know
It's my unknown, it's my dismiss
Some call ignorance, I call a little bliss
It's how are you's, to and from things I'd rather never know, things I'd rather never know, things I'd rather never know
The things I'd rather never know
