I Don't Know
Adrienne Pierce Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't say that I don't love you though it would make things easier
I don't know why but it seems I've failed another test
I can't even say for sure that I have done my best
I have done my best
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know why I left
I feel lonely and bereft
I don't know why I am going
I don't know anything
I don't know
No, I don't know
We put men up into space, satellites in the sky
But we still don't really know what happens when we die
Maybe I will find somebody light and feel less incomplete
Maybe I will bloom when I push up through this concrete
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know why I left
I feel displaced and erased
I feel lonely and bereft
I don't know why I'm going
I don't know anything
I don't know
No, no I don't know
All these things that I do
They are meaningless without you
Without you, without you, without you
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know why I left
I feel displaced and erased
I feel lonely and bereft
I don't know why I'm going
I don't know anything
I don't know, no, no I don't know
I don't know, no, no I don't know
I don't know, no, I don't know
