I have to stop saying to be honest 
It's not a real defeat 
To have to stop saying to be honest 
It's not a great defeat 

No no no not such a great defeat 

All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 
All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 

Can you tell me ten words that you'd use 
To describe the world 
Tell me ten words that you'd use 
To describe the world to people 
Though people never seem to know 
To people though people never know 

The more I say the more I keep confusing things 
To make me feel complete 
So I keep lying to be honest 
And it's not a real defeat 

No no no not such a real defeat 

All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 
All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 

Can you tell me ten words that you'd use 
To describe the world 
Tell me ten words that you'd use 
To describe the world to people 
Though people never seem to know 
To people though people never know 

It's what you thought you are
It's what you thought you are
It's what you thought you are
It's what you thought you are
It's what you thought you are
It's what you thought you could be 
If you tried much harder 

All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 
All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 

All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way 
All these things that you don't know 
It seems so much better that way
