How tides control the sea and what becomes of me
How little things can slip out of your hands
How often people change, no two remain the same
Why things don’t always turn out as you plan

These are things that I don’t understand
Yeah, these are things that I don’t understand

I can’t and I can’t decide
Wrong, wrong from right
Day, or my day from night
Dark, or the dark from light
I live but I love this life

How infinite is space and who decides your fate
Why everything will dissolve into sand
How to avoid defeat where truth and fiction meet
Why nothing ever turns out as you plan

These are things that I don’t understand
Yeah, these are things that I don’t understand

I can’t and I can’t decide
Wrong, wrong from right
Day, or the day from night
Or dark, or the dark from light
I live but I love this life
