You Don't Know Me (feat. Regina Spektor)

I wanna ask you

Do you ever sit and wonder

It's 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've felt but I've 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 don't know me

You don't know me at all

You could have just propped me up on the table like a mannequin

Or a cardboard standup and paint me

Any face that you wanted me

To be seen

We're

Damned by the existential moment where

We saw the couple in the coma and

It was we were the cliche

But we carried on anyway

So, sure, I could just close my eyes

Yeah, sure, trace and memorise

But can you go back once you know?

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me

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 fuck would you want me back?

Maybe it's because

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me

So, what I'm trying to say is

What

I'm trying to tell you

It's not gonna come out like I wanna say it

'Cause I know you'll only change it

Say it

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

You don't know me

You don't know me at all

What?
