Brad Blanco - not knowing

what is v?
can anyone explain?
no.
is it an upside down triangle?
with no bottom?

or is it a mistake?
a scribble turned good?
an awkward shape?
nobody knows.

i wish i knew
but thats impossible
there is no answer for most things in the world
only to know when you go above
to meet the men who invented those things
but then your stuck
way up high with no way down

or you can go down
from the middle
to the bottom
then you may never know
