If We Would Know

There are these eyes, too blind to see.
She protects herself, against you and me.
The only way out, to stay out of those hands.
Is to build a wall, where hunger never ends.

Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
Goddamn if we would only know.

There are these ears, to deaf to hear.
Where the rumors spread, the truth disappears.
It started out so innocent, but it ended up cruel.
The words that damage, the words of fools.

Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
We should listen to their stories, we should watch where we go.
Goddamn if we would only know.

Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
Goddamn if we would only know.

There are these opinions, failing of facts.
Cause of that, you would've sent them back.
But it has cost them more, more than you own.
What would you do, where would you go?

Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
We should think about our stories, we should watch where we go.
Goddamn if we would only know.

Goddamn, goddamn, if we would know.
Goddamn if we would only know.
