[Verse 1]
One day I was telling you
All about coming from dust
Cashed it I to buy a few locks
I knew wouldn't rust
If I lock you up
Will the edges fade
Will you understand
How simple I am
I can walk for many miles
Thinking that I'll never comprehend
I can't argue worth a damn
'cause i know my questions never end

[Pre-Chorus]
If I walk away
Will the phrases play
Or will they all become one
Under the sun

[Chorus]
And when the pleasure is done
Why don't I want to know it all
Why don't I want to know it all
And when the measuring's done
Somehow I already know it all
[Verse 2]
Answers never satisfy
I wear them out as soon as they come
I lie in between the sides
I'm happy when the fighting is done
So I'll read the news
And I'll get the blues
And I'll make it matter
For a minute or two

[Chorus]
And when the pleasure is done
Why don't I want to know it all
Why don't I want to know it all
And when the measuring's done
Somehow I already know it all
