I should've known, but how could I?
They've written and said in the book of the Lord
No one knows the day and the time
His angels, the son either; they know not

If I knew, I wouldn't have left
I would have taken possession of my belongings
I would've aim at the back of the entrance
I would've spot from afield

Because I believe when they say,
The snake which is seen doesn't bite
I would've battled the war if that's what it takes.

I should've known, but how could I?
