Less Is Given

[Verse 1]
I was searching for answer THE
Explanation done and dusted
Simple reasoned understanding
All I found was extra questions

[Verse 2]
I was hoping for conclusion
Journey ended celebration
Final reaching destination
All I found was stop over short

[Chorus]
All I know is
More discover – less is certain
More is hidden – less is given

[Verse 3]
I was praying for direction
Which religion judge the best one
Do you even want submission?
Is my purpose your prescription?

[Repeat Chorus]

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
I was hoping for a sign post
Indication getting somewhere
Reassurance making progress
Speculation validation

[Repeat Chorus]

[Spoken word]
Less is given … not in the verb sense – past tense of the word ‘give’ – rather in a noun sense ‘known or established facts or situations’. For me these becoming less and less the more I learn. I wonder what Socrates would have to say? Am I getting any closer to knowing / becoming aware of the extent of what I don’t know? Do I still think I know something?

“The more I know, the more I realize I know nothing.”
― Socrates
