"You Don't Know Me" by Ben Folds
I wanna ask you;
Do you ever sit and wonder
Its so strange that we could be together
For so long and never know, never care
What goes on in the other one's head?
Things I felt but I never said
You said things that I never said
So I'll say something that I should have said long ago...
(You don't know me)
You don't know me at all.
You could have just propped me up at the table like a mannequin
Or a cardboard stand up and paint me
Any face that you wanted me to be
See, we're damned by the existential moment
When we saw the couple in a coma and
It was weakened with the cliche
But we carried on anyway
So, sure, I could just close my eyes
Yeah, sure, trace and memorize
But, can you go back once you know?
(You don't know me)
You don't know me at all.
If I'm the person that you think I am
Clueless chump you seem to think I am
So easily led astray, an errant dog
Who occasionally escapes and needs a shorter leash then
Why the f*@# would you want me back?
Maybe its because...
You don't know me at all.
So what I'm trying to say is
What I'm trying to tell you is
Not gonna come out like I wanna say it
Cause I only know you'll change it... (Say It!)
(You don't know me.)
You don't know me at all.
