Is it only ’cause we’re young
Toddlers dressed up in weathered bodies, we’d fool any crowd
Yet we are still alone
Landlocked, but islanders; we grapple to feel anything
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
If you had a million years
Would you risk that you’ll run aground or pick out your burial ground?
I admit it’s hard to choose
But this is the hand we’re dealt, our tails tied like cornered animals
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Now I know I need more than words of wisdom
I’m just skin upon bone when it’s all said and done
I break, I fall just to feel something
All my logic has failed, and I’m willing to quake
If that’s what it takes
Did we think we knew it all?
Trusting in mortal people’s scholarship, our Babel steeple
But there is no crystal ball
And all of our gathered efforts never will foretell what will be
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Now I know I need more than words of wisdom
I’m just skin upon bone when it’s all said and done
I break, I fall just to feel something
All my logic has failed, and I’m willing to quake
If that’s what it takes
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything You say
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything now
Yeah, I’ll do anything You say
Oh, I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything You say
Oh, I’ll do any–
Oh, I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything now
I’ll do anything You say
Oh, I’ll do anything–
I know I need more than words of wisdom
I’m just skin upon bone when it’s all said and done
I break, I fall just to feel something
All my logic has failed, and I’m willing to quake
If that’s what it takes
