I paint with colors that aren't there

I dance to the music no one hears

I write with the words no one can read

And I wonder what we know

Years ago, decades, millennia past

We knew the Gods controlled the weather

We knew the Earth was flat

We knew that our planet was the center of the solar system

We knew so many things, so many facts

And I wonder what we know today

What we won't know until we know we didn't know

What we won't know until we question how, we question why we didn't know

What we won't know for years, decades, millennia to come

Have you ever tried to understand infinity?

There's always one more, one higher...and thousands, millions, infinitely more beyond

You can understand that there are infinitely more beyond

But how can that be?

An infinity within an infinity?

If it's within, isn't it smaller?

But how can one be smaller than the other when both are infinite?

You can understand that both are infinite

But you can't understand that both are infinite

Such is the nature of infinity

Of what we know

Of what we can read, what we can hear, what we can see

So I write, and I dance, and I paint

But do I really?
