The Less I Know

Caught between the stars and underground
I’m climbing up just to get back down
My lips are moving but make no sound
Don’t leave me here this way
Oh God what did i do I had nine lives now i only got two
Tried to call couldn’t get through
I wrote a letter, did it get to you?
It said, Dead God life ain’t kind
People living, people dying
I’m putting all my money on hold
The more I learn the less I know
Caught between the stars and underground
I’m climbing up just to get back down
My lips are moving but make no sound
Don’t leave me here this way
Oh no how do you breathe
How do you love and is he a she
I got one hand taking the fifth
One hand making a fist and
Oh God what do I do
I said oh God Im talking to you
The past the future
The future the past
You think you’re looking forward
But you’re really looking back
Caught between the stars and underground
I’m climbing up just to get back down
My lips are moving but make no sound
Don’t leave me here this way
This is all the punches that we take
This is making love and sleeping late
This is all the money that we make
That we save for that holiday
This is standing up not backing down
And this is all the tears of a clown
And this is all the gold that was sold at the end of the rainbow
