Destination Unknown (Live) Lyrics
Missing Persons
Lyrics
Life is so strange when you don't know
How can you tell where you're going to
you can't be sure of any situation
something could change and then you won't know
Ask yourself
where do we go from here
it seems so all to near
just as far beyond as I can see
I still don't know what this all means to me
Tell yourself
I have nowhere to go
I don't know what to do
And I don't even know the time of day
I guess it doesn't matter any way
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know
Your destination
Something could change
It's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know
Your destination
Something could change
It's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown
You ask yourself
When will my time come
Has it all been said and done
I know I'll leave when it's my time to go
Till then I'll carry on with what I know
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know
Your destination
Something could change
It's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown
Life is so strange
Destination unknown
When you don't know
Your destination
and something could change
It's unknown
And then you won't know
Destination unknown
Life is so strange
