Lyrics
When I mention that there?s something wrong,
You tell me I?m a pessimist
Even though you?re staring down the same monster as me
And while we?re talking about it,
The monster is sneaking around
And by the time the conversation?s over
It?ll be too late.
I?m not saying this trying to be difficult.
I?m not saying this just to raise fear
It?s just that if we?re prepared, we can fight it better
We won?t win but we won?t disappear?
Chorus:
I?ve been right about too many things I?d rather be wrong about
I?ve been wrong about too few things that turned out to be right
But if you think I think I know it all
You don?t know what I?m getting at.
It?s just I know too much for my own good.
I know too much for my own good.
I know too much for my own good but not enough?for you.
We always go round and round
And fall right into the trap
This isn?t my imagination
It?s something that I don?t want.
And that other thing we never talk about
?Cause we don?t want to verbalize it into existence
Is on the other side of the door waiting for its time.
I?m not saying this trying to be difficult.
I?m not saying this just to raise fear
It?s just that if we?re prepared, we can fight it better
We won?t win but we won?t disappear
Repeat Chorus
