You Wouldn't Know

Justin McRoberts


I was listening to you 
But I couldn't hear you 
Through all of your talking 

I was trying to understand 
Trying to make sense of 
Your foreign language 

It's not a matter of my lack of faith 
My stubbornness, I want you to know 
I'm fascinated by why you believe 
What you believe 
Not why I don't 

You wouldn't know 
You never stopped you're talking 
I never got a word in edge-wise to tell you I believed it 
No, enchanted by your arguments 
The sound of your own voice 
You wouldn't know 

Now I'm trying to figure out 
Exactly what I asked to warrant such answers
