The More You Know

There was a time
I didn't know that I didn't know
I couldn't see that I couldn't see
How far there was for me to go
As I try to understand
I understand it won't make sense
The more I learn, the more I learn
That it will eat away my confidence

You may walk a thousand miles to find ten thousand more
Sail the seas to find you've never left the shore
The more you chase the further it gets
And after all this learning
You will learn there is just one truth to learn

I know the more you know
The less you know
The more that you know you don't know
No, you don't know at all
I know the more you know
The less you know
The more that you know you don't know
No, you don't know at all

I look for answers
But the answers that I find
Are just questions, now I question
Every lesson, every time
Just to think that I could think
I knew enough to know it well
I can't believe, I could believe
I wouldn't fight a war inside myself

You may climb the mountain to find yourself at the base
Travel the world just to stare up into space
The more you chase the further it gets
And after all there's learning
You will learn there is just one truth to learn

I know the more you know
The less you know
The more that you know you don't know
No, you don't know at all
I know the more you know
The less you know
The more that you know you don't know
No, you don't know at all
