[Verse 1] I looked at your face, thought I knew what you felt A glance, a sigh, a silence – my mind filled in the rest But all I thought was just a trace A shadow of the truth, a trick my mind had guessed [Pre-Chorus] What do I really know? What’s only my assumption? I learn to pause before I draw conclusions [Chorus] What we think is not always true Sometimes silence says more than what we do The mind is fast, the heart needs time I practice peace, though it feels like a climb [Verse 2] A word too much, a sentence misunderstood The fire ignites before I know But Seneca whispers softly in my ear: “Hold back your judgment, let it go” [Pre-Chorus] What do I really see? What do I project on you? I let go of what I can’t be sure is true [Chorus] What we think is not always true Sometimes patience is the braver view The mind rushes in, but wisdom waits A quiet soul opens wiser gates [Bridge] Breathe in, count to ten Let it pass, let go again Truth arrives when I don’t chase When I don’t rush to fill the space [Final Chorus] What we think is not always true But peace will find who waits it through The storm will fade, the mind turns clear In not-knowing, truth draws near [Outro] I know that I know nothing sure And in that space, I find a cure
