I heard this old story before  
Where people keep appealing for the metaphors  
Don't leave much up to the imagination  
So I wanna give this imagery back when  
I know it just ain't so easy like that  
So, I turn the page and read the story again  
And again and again  
It sure seems the same with a different name  
We're breaking and rebuilding  
And we're growing, always guessing  
Never knowing  
Shocking but we're nothing  
We're just moments  
We're clever but we're clueless  
We're just human  
Amusing and confusing  
We're trying but where is this all leading  
We'll never know  
It all happened so much faster than you could say disaster  
Wanna take a time-lapse and look at it backwards from the last one  
And maybe that's just the answer that we're after  
But after all we're just a bubble in a boiling pot  
Just one breath in a chain of thought  
The moments just combusting  
Feel certain but we'll never, never know  
Sure seems the same  
Give it a different name  
We're begging and we're needing  
And we're trying and we're breathing  
Never knowing  
Shocking but we're nothing  
We're just moments  
We're clever but we're clueless  
We're just human  
Amusing and confusing  
We're helping  
We're building and we're growing  
You never know  
You never know  
Never know, never know  
Knock, knock on my door to door  
Tell ya that the metaphor is better than yours  
And you can either sink or swim  
Things are looking pretty grim  
If you don't believe in what this one feeding  
It's got no feeling  
So I read it again and again and again  
Sure seems the same  
Too many different names  
Our hearts are strong, our heads are weak  
We'll always be competing never knowing  
Shocking but we're nothing  
We're just moments  
We're clever but we're clueless  
We're just human  
Amusing, confusing  
But the truth is all we got is questions  
We'll never know  
Never know  
Never know  
Never know
