I never held your gaze
I never know my place
Oh, I stare at the eyes staring at my face
It always ends in a tie, there is no knitting the divide
I cry at the joke explained
Ah, but if I had known, I had known
If I had known, I would have never believed
I never smoked my chain
Whoever measures the crest
Ah, they can have my broken chest
It's a staring contest in a hall of mirrors
I sweat tears, but I don't ever cry
Oh, if I had known, if I had known
If I had known, I would have never believed
I never knelt at the news
My parrot perished in the pews
I climb back into the yolk
It always ends in a tie
There is no knitting the divide
I cry at the joke explained
Ah, if I had known, if I had known
If I had known, I would have never believed
I would have never believed
I would have never believed
