Tread Carefully

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Who really wants to know what tomorrow knows? Is it better left alone at the bottom of the ocean? It's somewhat comforting to know you never really know a thing Just a belief in something better left unopened [Verse 2] Who really wants to know the theories and the formulas? A heart is not and never was an object you can measure And if I never find the blooper to this life of mine At least I know some quandaries are better left unanswered Oh [Pre-Chorus] If there's one thing I've learned It's that I can't trust anything If there's one thing I know It's that love only really happens when you're aren't really looking [Chorus] So tread carefully, move cautiously And tiptoe around me, I'll tiptoe around you Tread carefully, don't wait for me And then maybe someday, I'll be there waiting too I'll be there waiting, too [Verse 3] Who really wants to know what tomorrow knows The fortuneteller's prophecy, the alleyway to heaven? Who really wants to know the teaser to a riddle? I'd rather hold a secret than dilute it with a question Ah [Verse 4] Who wants to justify the man behind the strings? Is it better left alone, is it better left alone? Ah It's somewhat comforting to think I'm just a vessel Not a thing, a distant echo that reminds me of my passing on [Chorus] So tread carefully, move cautiously And tiptoe around me, I'll tiptoe around you Tread carefully, don't wait for me And then maybe someday, I'll be there waiting too I'll be there waiting [Outro] Tread carefully, don't wait for me And then maybe someday, I'll be there waiting too
