lyrics

Stop holding on to what we’ve got
Cuz what we’ve got won’t hold you
I don’t gotta be for you I’m just keeping on
Barely keeping on without you
You don’t gotta tell me
(No, no, no, no)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You don’t gotta tell me
(No, no, no, no)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

This is why we can’t (No, no, no, no)
This is why we can’t (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
This is why we can’t move on (No, no, no, no)
This is why we can’t go on

Stop holding on to what we’ve got
Cuz what we’ve got might kill you

This is why we can’t (No, no, no, no)
This is why we can’t (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
This is why we can’t (No, no, no, no)
This is why we can’t go on (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(No, no, no, no) (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Heard "You Never Knew" on Mariah Duran's skate part on Thrasher yesterday. Coincidentally, 2 days ago, I was talking to my brother and he said something along the lines of "I'm sure a song exists out there that would be my favorite ever, but I will never find it because there is too much music." and here I am, listening to this album on repeat since yesterday. Can't wait for the record to arrive. Would love longer versions of pretty much the whole album, I can't get enough. Superb work. Hadi Burpee
