I Make It My Firm Policy
To Make My Bed With Honesty
So, I Don't Sleep With Shadows in the Room
The Truth Is I've Been Holdin' Back
The Way I Feel About the Fact
That I'm Not As Close As I Want to Be With You

There's Still So Much More of You I Long to Know
And I Won't Be Content Until I Do

Chorus
'cause What do I Know
If I Don't Really Know You
Though I May Blow the Minds of Men
How Can I Say That I Know
Anything of Love
Unless I Find It in Your Hands

I'm Not Playing Playground Games
I'm Not Reading Dick and Jane
And I Don't Need a Pass to Walk the Halls
I've Graduated in My Faith
And Still I've Barely Pushed the Gate
That Opens to the One True Know-it-all

I Could Win a Nobel Prize Or Rule the World
But, I Would Die a Genius With no Clue

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Life Is Such a Cruel Deception
Without You to Lead My Quest
I'd Fail the Test
