Idlewild › Lyrics › Tell Me Ten Words

I have to stop saying to be honest, it’s not a real defeat
To have to stop saying to be honest, it’s not a great defeat
No, no, no, not such a great defeat

All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way
All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way

Can you tell me ten words that you’d use, to describe the world
Can you tell me ten words that you've used, to describe the world
To people, though people, never seem to know
To people, though people, never know

The more I say the more I keep confusing things, to make me feel complete
So I keep lying to be honest and it’s not a real defeat
No, no, no, not such a real defeat

All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way
All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way

Can you tell me ten words that you’d use, to describe the world
Can you tell me ten words that you've used, to describe the world
To people, though people, never seem to know
To people, though people, never know

It’s what you thought you are, it’s what you thought you are
It’s what you thought you are,
It’s what you thought you are, it’s what you thought you are
It’s what you thought you could be if you tried much harder

All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way
All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way

All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way
All these things that you don’t know
It seems so much better that way
