Lyrics for I Think I Preferred The Question

Only time will tell if I knew you well Or if I did not know you at all It's heaven, it's hell, it is well The spell dispels the more that I talk about it In time I'll show what I truly know If I truly know anything at all I relinquished control of all the dreams I was sold When I heeded my head and my soul and my heart about it I'm tired of all the answers They slowly short you on the ground I think I prefer the questions All at once I knew all the things I went through There was no rhyme, no reason at all Just a vagrant belief, a pomp and ceremony But I still have the need and I cannot get my head around it I'm tired of all the answers They slowly short you on the ground I think I prefer the questions One day when I was feeling brave I got my rage enlisted I mustered up the courage and asked if you existed I stilled my mind and I did nothing else but listen I'm tired of all the answers I'm tired of all the answers I'm tired of all the answers They slowly short you on the ground I think I prefer the questions
