Maybe I'll Never Know

Maybe I'll Never Know is an exploration of my feelings towards spirituality. Is there a "greater purpose" to human existence? Is our purpose to fulfill our finite time here on earth with as much love and enjoyment as we can? Is there no purpose at all, leaving it up to us to create it for ourselves? These thoughts take up a lot of my mental space. I sometimes struggle with finite time making me feel desperate for an answer, making me feel like loss of anything I love is even harder to handle. Maybe once we're gone, there is a beauty in the stillness, and calmness of non existence waiting on us? Perhaps it isn't something to worry about at all. I had a religious upbringing that forced me to ponder these kinds of things often. I love my family and I love the joy I get from seeing the ocean, a good cup of coffee, a beer with friends, a great movie, spending time in nature around wildlife, and so much more. For now, its important to me to keep my focus calibrated on that, because at lease I do know that those things matter and very much so. As for the other stuff, I'm beginning to find a comfort even in the fact that maybe I'll never know.

LYRICS

I don’t really mind if you come close 

I’m moving like a car along a lonely road 

And all I really think about is you 

And the things that I’ll lose 

All the things that I’ll lose 

 

I don’t know 

How I’ve stayed awake so long 

Maybe in the dark lies the calm 

Or maybe I’ll never know 

Maybe I'll never know

Maybe I'll never know

 

All I really think about is love 

And if it there is a part of that that comes from above 

Am I turning every lie into the truth? 

Do you even care about the things I do? 

 

I don’t know  

How I’ve stayed awake so long  

Maybe in the dark lies the calm  

Or maybe I’ll never know  

Maybe I'll never know 

Maybe I'll never know

 

And I feel it 

Coming close 

 

And I feel it 

Coming close 

Staring me in my soul 

Maybe I’ll never know

Maybe I'll never know
