There are days and strange ways ,,,

I've got things on my mind, and tip of my tongue, and edges of my teeth that I'd love to say but would make you blush and tie your guts into knots. Things I'd love to say that could shatter your world and send everything flying. That could completely change the way you looked at all of this if only you'd listen.
And I've got things written down in notebooks and on pieces of paper that could send you out in tears and me into the hospital. Things I'd love for you to read that could piece everything together and keep it all under wraps. That could completely rearrange everything in your mind, if only you'd listen.
And I've observed and seen things here and there and out and about and everywhere that you've seen too. Things that keep it fresh, things that remind you, things that never let you forget how wonderful the world is. Things that you've seen but never ever notice that make it all worthwhile. That lift and place and tug and pull at all of the strings that you swear don't exist but tug at your gut.

And you can say it's evolution. That we evolved this idea to keep us alive but our molecules have been places, and the things inside of us that keep us going are as old as the universe. Our subatomic particles interact and one day they're going to discover this.
There are things we don't know about.

And I know things that would shatter your world and leave you in ruins
and these things help me sleep at night.
These things make it make sense.
Constantly reminding me
that there are things that we do not yet know about.
Things that are going on with or without us.
Things that will continue to go on with or without us.
