I Don't Know

< A song for after fighting. I probably wouldn't post it, but I vowed to hold nothing back...>

I want to tell you all these things,
That I don't know;
About all this pain and hurt,
About all this sorrow.
I send you words as black as night,
And small white lies,
And wipe away the gathering tears,
You can't see in my eyes.
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know.

A promise that was  made and broken,
Once upon a time,
Slips you back a wrung on the ladder,
That all of us climb.
I reach out a hand to help you,
But only leave you hurt.
I feel like the lowest worm,
Crawling in the dirt.
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know.

I know too many girls and boys,
Both good and bad,
But the only fact I seem to know,
Is we're too often sad.
I can't seem to comprehend,
The reasons here;
Why do I sit, sore afraid,
If there's not to fear?
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know.

We were friends e'er yesterday,
But yesterday I hurt you.
It's by no means a pleasant feeling;
Not something I try to do.
I swear that I would fix it,
If fix it I could.
But it seems when I put my mind to things,
 I do more harm than good.
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know.

You don't deserve the memories,
I've given you of late;
I would go back and change these things,
Were it not too late.
I should fall in a lake of blue fire,
Letting my soul burn,
Maybe then I'd start to learn,
If I can still learn.
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know.

I want to tell you all these things,
That I don't know;
About all this pain and hurt,
About this sorrow.
I send you words as black as night,
And small white lies,
And wipe away the gathering tears,
You can't see in my eyes.
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't know I don't know.
