The Things We Think We Know

Is there anything that you don't know
When an answer's just a click away?
(That's just what they say)
But I could find a thousand more
Just depending whose I take
The things are just so much easier to believe
When they come from a TV screen
The desperation of our situation
Lost its potency

Whatever happened to the tactile times?
Now a fire doesn't hurt the same
We can cauterize our senses
And let the world just burn away

Oh, we can already see that it's too late
An idea takes hold and starts to propogate
Oh, we can be the ones to change our minds
To look from another side
And find there's a world bigger than our lives

One day just bite your tongue
And admit you can be wrong
There's a bliss in hearing
Your self-denial song
It will hurt to separate
From the discord in your mind
But there will be beauty
When we start to harmonize

Oh, we can already see that it's too late
An idea takes hold and starts to propogate
Oh, we can be the ones to change our minds
To look from another side
And find there's a world bigger than our lives
