I Think I Knew (feat. Perfume Genius)

There's no talking to him
His eyes are as bald and dusty as tepid water
I am old, just to sit with him
Aging at the notion of a lifetime on a limb

There's no working it out
My wanting is beyond all fields of formula
There's no boundary to devotion
No territory to handle and cut neatly into three

I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew

No sign on the door
No title to the deeds I'm digging for
Upon we wade into that ocean
Blot out all certainty and call it as I'd be

The air is all ribbons of ice
Softening the corners of my eyes
I was bold, I was the author
Doubt crept in like sickly dogs
And dragged me through the freeze

I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew

I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew

What did you want?
Everything
How would you love him?
On my knees
There is no one that can't be opened
This one to cut the heart in two, the other one to choose

I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew
I wish I knew

I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew

I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew
I think I knew

Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah, ah
