A Little Knowledge

Verse 1
When I was young, I thought I knew everything
As they say, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing
Like a couple facts about Rome or Martin Luther King

Pre-Chorus
But wisdom fades if we don’t stay true
The more I learned, the less I knew

Verse 2
We like to sit in our Ivory Towers
Francis Bacon said knowledge is power
Dr. King condemned money and power

Pre-Chorus
But wisdom fades if we don’t stay true
The more I learned, the less I knew

Chorus
Oh, I’m still searching for the light
Between the shadows of wrong and right
The higher I climb,
 the more I fall
Knowledge is a journey after all

Verse 3
I raised my voice with a borrowed phrase
Believed I could change the world in a hundred days
thought I was thorough, but barely escaped the blaze.

Pre-Chorus
But wisdom fades if we don’t stay true
The more I learned, the less I knew

Chorus
Oh, I’m still searching, searching for the light
Between the shadows of wrong and right
The higher I climb,
 the more I fall
Knowledge is a journey after all

Verse 4
The older I get, the questions reroute
The answers change in rain and drought
I know money and power ain’t what it’s all about 

Pre-Chorus
But wisdom fades if we don’t stay true
The more I learned, the less I knew

Chorus
Oh, I’m still searching, searching for the light
Between the shadows of wrong and right
The higher I climb,
 the more I fall
Knowledge is a journey after all

Chorus
Oh, I’m still searching, searching for the light
Between the shadows of wrong and right
The higher I climb,
 the more I fall
Knowledge is a journey after all
