You Could Never Know

[Verse 1]
It's just the circumstance
Left with no choice or chance
It's affection, but it feels like abusive, yeah
"It's a facade," you say
I just don't feel that way
That's the house you built with bricks of excuses, yeah

[Chorus]
You could never know how hard on myself I am
You could never know what the feeling's like
You can look around:
Whatcha see when you look within?
You could never know what the feeling's like
'Till you try
'Till you try

[Verse 2]
Collect my dividends
On the time that I spent
Trying to save us while you spent all the interest, yeah
On the college degree
Thought that might set you free, but
Turns out that freedom's just the price of admission, yeah

[Chorus]
You could never know how hard on myself I am
You could never know what the feeling's like
You can look around:
Whatcha see when you look within?
You could never know what the feeling's like
'Till you try
'Till you try

[Bridge]
You can talk to me now
I will listen if I can
You can sleep with my friends
It's probably for the best
People all around will say:
"You're such a good example, man"
What will they be talkin' 'bout?

[Chorus]
You could never know how hard on myself I am
You could never know what the feeling's like
You can look around:
Whatcha see when you look within?
You could never know what the feeling's like
'Till you try

[Outro]
(You never know what, you never know what) 'Till you try
(You never know what the feeling's like) 'Till you try
(You never know what, you never know what) 'Till you try
(You never know what the feeling's like) 'Till you try
