Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

I've seen the signs but never understood

The difference between the bad and good

Every answer hides another lie

And every truth has a reason why

Pre-Chorus

Behind the curtain behind the disguise

There's something hidden from everyone's eyes

Chorus

You can never guess and I will never tell you

What's really hiding underneath it all

You can search forever for the meaning

But you'll never know what you're seeing

You can never guess and I will never tell you

The truth behind the rise and fall

Post-Chorus

Some things are better left unknown

Some secrets were never meant to be shown

Verse 2

I've walked the roads that lead nowhere

Chasing shadows that were never there

Every question becomes another door

To something I don't understand anymore

Pre-Chorus

The more I learn the less I know

The deeper I dig the further I go

Chorus

You can never guess and I will never tell you

Why nothing is ever what it seems

Every nightmare wears a different face

Every answer disappears without a trace

You can never guess and I will never tell you

What's hiding underneath your dreams

Post-Chorus

There's no beginning there's no end

Just another mystery around the bend

Bridge

What if the truth was never real

What if nothing means what we feel

What if the answers were always lies

What if the meaning was never inside

Maybe there's nothing to understand

Maybe it's all just grains of sand

Slipping through the hands of time

Looking for a reason we'll never find

Interlude

Verse 3

I've stopped pretending that I understand

Why everything slips right through my hands

Maybe the meaning was never there

Maybe the truth was never meant to be shared

Pre-Chorus

So keep on searching keep asking why

Some questions will never have a reply

Chorus

You can never guess and I will never tell you

What lies beyond the final door

You can spend forever chasing answers

Only to discover even more

You can never guess and I will never tell you

Because I don't know anymore

Post-Chorus

And when the final shadows fall

Will we ever know the meaning of it all

Outro

You can never guess

And I will never tell you

Maybe there was never a meaning

Maybe there was nothing at all

And maybe that's the greatest secret

Of them all

Ambient Reprise

Verse 4

I've asked the sky what it was keeping

From the ones who stayed awake while sleeping

Every star just turned its face away

Leaving me with nothing left to say

Pre-Chorus

And still the questions gather in my chest

Like birds that never found a place to rest

Chorus

You can never guess and I will never tell you

Why the silence always knows my name

You can look for answers in the morning

But the evening always ends the same

You can never guess and I will never tell you

If the searching was the point of it all

Post-Chorus

No map will ever mark the way

No compass points to yesterday

Verse 5

I built a house from everything I knew

And watched it come apart the way houses do

The walls were only paper in the rain

The roof was only hope against the pain

Pre-Chorus

So I stopped counting all the doors I tried

And let the unknown stand there by my side

Chorus

You can never guess and I will never tell you

What waits beyond the edge of what we know

You can carry questions like a lantern

But the road will only let you go

You can never guess and I will never tell you

Whether anyone was ever in control

Post-Chorus

The quiet doesn't owe us an reply

The quiet only asks us not to lie

Instrumental Break

Verse 6

Some nights I hear a voice that isn't mine

Telling me that not knowing is fine

That the answer was a story we were told

By someone who was also in the cold

Pre-Chorus

So I'll sit here with the things I'll never prove

And let the doubt become a kind of room

Chorus

You can never guess and I will never tell you

Why I finally put the question down

You can chase the meaning to the border

But there's no one waiting on the other side of town

You can never guess and I will never tell you

Maybe peace was never knowing
