Unexplainable Stories Lyrics

We've been searching for our whole lives.
And we have traveled through unexplainable stories.
Swear to God I fought the good fight,
always waiting for the coming of morning.
And I heard the Captain say, I heard the Captain say,
"The more I know, the less I'm knowing."
And I heard the Captain say, I heard the Captain say,
"Activate your force-fields and just keep going..."

"The more I know, the less I'm knowing"

The more you learn about things, especially life, the more your realize you don't know.

"Activate your force-fields and just keep going..."

and sometimes in life, thats all you can really do

:) one of the best opening songs i've heard in a long time.

Beautiful orchestration, beautiful lyrics. So under-appreciated, but its a secret pleasure.

I think of the "captain" as God, or his interpretation of God. If you think in terms of Craig Minowa's tragic loss of his son, this can be one of the unexplainable stories of life. "activate your force fields and just keep going".....isn't this what we have to do when faced with unimaginable pain in our lives?
