Nobody Knows

I'm gonna get it right now
I'm gonna clear the air
I'll be the first to say it anytime, anywhere
We're building up a safe distance
We're building castles in the sand
But when the waves come crashing down
They slip through open hand

Yet He knows our frame
That we are merely dust
Why is it for God so loved us?

Nobody knows
But the Son and the Father
Nobody knows
The extent of His love
Nobody knows
For the pain that He suffered
Nobody knows
Not the angels above

We try to pray for a moment of peace
Wash hands in the dirt
Justify the means, in the end it's all the same
No one gets hurt
And if we had it our way
I guess we'd just try to save ourselves
Who needs a manmade god
Who's not there or even real

But He's with us, not far off
Regardless of our thoughts
Why is it for God so loved us?

Nobody knows
But the Son and the Father
Nobody knows
The extent of His love
Nobody knows
For the pain that He suffered
Nobody knows
Not the angels above

Nobody knows
Till the secret's uncovered
Nobody knows
Not one single one
Nobody knows
If we think we've discovered
Nobody knows
But the Father and Son

We try so hard inside
To find ourselves, so we say
But everyday, one step away
It never fails
We can't deny the fear
We hide so well, it remains
Our hopes and dreams, so very frail
But God loves us like His child
And His hands are reaching out

But He's with us, not far off
Regardless of our thoughts
Why is it for God so loved us?

Nobody knows
But the Son and the Father
Nobody knows
The extent of His love
Nobody knows
For the pain that He suffered
Nobody knows
Not the angels above

Nobody knows
Till the secret's uncovered
Nobody knows
Not one single one
Nobody knows
If we think we've discovered
Nobody knows
But the Father and Son

Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows

Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows...
