Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
It was not growing up
That slowly applied
The brakes to learning
But an accumulation
Of things I know
Things I know
It was not growing up
That slowly applied
Is a sure way to blind yourself
Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
Thinking you knew something
Is a sure way to blind yourself
It was not growing up
That slowly applied
The brakes to learning
But an accumulation
Of things I know
Things I know
It was not growing up

The mind can go
Either direction under stress
Toward positive
Or toward negative
On or off
On or off
Think of it as a spectrum
Whose extremes
Are unconsciousness
At the negative end
And hyper consciousness
At the positive end
The way the mind will lean
Under stress
Is strongly influenced by training
Either direction under stress
Toward positive
Or toward negative
On or off
On or off
Think of it as a spectrum
Whose extremes
Are unconsciousness
At the negative end
And hyper consciousness
At the positive end
The way the mind will lean
Under stress
Is strongly influenced by training
When you think to take determination of your fate
Into your own hands
That is the moment you can be crushed
Be cautious, allow for surprises
When we create
There are always other forces
At work
At work
At work
At work
A process cannot be understood
By stopping it
Understanding must move
With the flow of the process
Must join with it
And flow with it
Must join with it and flow with it
That which submits, rules
Into your own hands
That is the moment you can be crushed
Be cautious, allow for surprises
When we create
There are always other forces
At work
At work
At work
At work
A process cannot be understood
By stopping it
Understanding must move
With the flow of the process
Must join with it
And flow with it
Must join with it and flow with it
That which submits, rules
There are many degrees of sight
And many degrees of blindness
Many degrees of sight
And many degrees of blindness
What senses do we lack
That we cannot see
Another world all around us
Muad'dib could indeed see the future
But you must understand
The limits of this power
Think of sight
You have eyes
But you cannot see without light
If you are on the floor of a valley
You cannot see beyond the valley
Just so, Muad'dib could not always choose
To look across the mysterious terrain
And many degrees of blindness
Many degrees of sight
And many degrees of blindness
What senses do we lack
That we cannot see
Another world all around us
Muad'dib could indeed see the future
But you must understand
The limits of this power
Think of sight
You have eyes
But you cannot see without light
If you are on the floor of a valley
You cannot see beyond the valley
Just so, Muad'dib could not always choose
To look across the mysterious terrain
We came from Caladan
A paradise world for our form of life
There existed no need on Caladan
To build a physical paradise
Or a paradise of the mind
We could see the actuality all around us
And the price we paid
Was the price men have always paid
For achieving a paradise in this life
We went soft
We lost our edge
[Chorus]
There should be a science
Of discontent
There should be a science
Of discontent
There should be a science
A paradise world for our form of life
There existed no need on Caladan
To build a physical paradise
Or a paradise of the mind
We could see the actuality all around us
And the price we paid
Was the price men have always paid
For achieving a paradise in this life
We went soft
We lost our edge
[Chorus]
There should be a science
Of discontent
There should be a science
Of discontent
There should be a science
