letra de what you know - ali dineen
[verse 1]
it was winter when you
told your life you were leaving it
for warmer countries
and as you moved through your days
with the spring coming on
you were tearing up roots
thinking soon you’d be gone
somewhere else there were miracles, carnivals
and a sp-ce in the air only your bones could fill
and right here only emptiness, tragedy
cold days and nights
all the light far away in some imagined place
[chorus]
we’ve got to start looking at what we pretend we can’t see
it will save us
or it will break us
and you’ve got to stop telling yourself what you don’t know
cause you know
what you know
[verse 2]
and spring it brought madness and chaos and song
the wind going warm, the days going long
i watched the world blow through your mind
we stooped low to pick up what it left behind
scattered stories of our country’s childhood
but we’re deaf to their sounds
we’re trying to stand up straight
but we don’t know what’s weighing us down
[chorus]
we’ve got to start looking at what we pretend we can’t see
it will save us
or it will break us
and you’ve got to stop telling yourself what you don’t know
cause you know
what you know
[verse 3]
it was summer when we
learned that you might be leaving us
for warmer countries
and as we moved through our days
cold wind blowing through
we were speaking our prayers for the keeping of you
who said speak out or suffocate on slow-burning lies
i say we steer this wayward ship home
till the last light dies
[chorus]
we’ve got to start looking at what we pretend we can’t see
it will save us
or it will break us
and you’ve got to stop telling yourself what you don’t know
cause you know
what you know
[verse 4]
and nowhere is without rainfall
nowhere is without drought
nowhere is without madness
nowhere is without doubt
nowhere without cruelty and nowhere without war
nowhere without sunrise when the candle won’t burn anymore
resting in the dawn, waking to ourselves
the breath filling our lungs with the same air as everyone else’s and
we’d find our way home when we find out what we know
we will find our way home when we find out what we know
