Lyrics

You Can Not Be Sure

Revolving ups and downs of thoughts decayed by time

Telling you everything but listen to your lies

Time to destroy

But don't loose your head

And then you'll find

You cannot be sure

Choking mind provoking criticisms now

They drift away creating nothing anyhow

See how they run

Running away

And then you'll find

You cannot be sure

So hypnotised

Don't loose your mind

Under/over statements forced from deep within

Still you can't possess the strength please don't give in

Time to just be

Being with time

See how you'll find

You cannot be sure
