Lyrics All That's Known - Jonathan Groff

All That's Known

All that’s known
In History, in Science
Overthrown
At school, at home, by blind men
You doubt them
And soon they bark and hound you-
Till everything you say is just another bad about you
All they say
Is «Trust in What is Written»
Wars are made
And somehow that is wisdom
Thought is suspect
And money is their idol
And nothing is okay unless it’s scripted in their Bible
But I know
There’s so much more to find-
Just in looking through myself
And not at them
Still, I know
To trust my own true mind
And to say: there’s a way through this
On I go
To wonder and to learning
Name the stars and know their dark returning
I’m calling
To know the world’s true yearning-
The hunger that a child feels for everything they’re shown
You watch me-
Just watch me-
I’m calling
And one day all will know
You watch me-
Just watch me-
I’m calling, I’m calling.
And one day all will know
