[Verse 1] Beyond the charts and tables There's writing on the wall Everybody saying that There's liars in the hall Someone shuts the window Another bolts the door One might say, “I know enough now Don't teach me anymore” [Pre-Chorus] But I’ve seen wisdom flicker When the candle almost died I’ve heard the faithful whisper “Leave that one outside” [Chorus] Give me questions with no answers I can carry through the night Not answers from a sacred book Some king told monks to write I’d rather keep on searching Where the wild unknowns reside Than bow down to a certainty Where the truth is locked outside Give me questions with no answers Let them trouble me awhile I don’t trust an easy truth Just because it's now in style [Bridge] Who are they to tell us What the truth must be It's better if they teach us To find truth in what we see [Verse 2] Let us open up the window Let's unbolts the door I can never learn enough Teach me something more [Pre-Chorus] Yes, I’ve seen wisdom flicker When the candle almost died I heard the wise ones whisper “Leave no one outside” [Chorus] Give me questions with no answers I can carry through the night Not answers in a locked box That you've painted clean and white I’d rather keep on searching Where the wild and unknowns are Than bow down to a certainty That doesn't know the stars Give me questions with no answers Let them trouble me awhile I don’t trust an easy truth Just because it wears a smile
