It's Not What You Know, It's What You Can Prove

Here it goes I'm swinging on a hope it's all behind me
Fall below the cotton rope as though I deserve the punishment

Let's take it back
To this cosy little living situation
Now it's a fact
That you're posing as a different feeling to these individuals

The best of the worst
Now the worst of the rest
Hate at first that it hurt but it serves you right for placing first second best

It's a secret when one of us is dead

IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE

Here's the hole I'm burning in my soul with hope and promises
There's no prize for drowning all my faults and foes inside me

I'll take it back
To a sinking feeling that living like a king is fleeting
It's hard to react to the fact that this pact wasn't original

The worst of our best
Investing instead of taking
Pride in the finite sunlight in stride, life finds ways to rip out your chest

IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE
FAKE TALK
NO MEANING
FAKE TALK
NO MEANING
ITS NOT
WHAT YOU KNOW, WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE

Here it goes I'm swinging on a hope it's all behind me

IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
IT'S WHAT YOU CAN PROVE
FAKE TALK
NO MEANING
FAKE TALK
NO MEANING
I'll take it back
To a sinking feeling that living like a king is fleeting
It's hard to react to the fact that this pact wasn't original
