Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Did you know I was a goonie
And my favorite color's green
And that life ain't like the movies?
We're livin' proof of that, it seems
Did you know I danced with Swayze
Every night when I was ten?
And while girls all flocked to boy bands
Jagged Little Pill was my jam
[PreChorus]
Did you know that control is a disease?
You say you see it now
Did you know that your words are on repeat?
Intentions six feet down
[Chorus]
And I was right there
You shoulda tried listening
And, no, it's not fair
What you're askin' of me
You said I was givin' up right as you were showin' up
I can take a little, but you took all I had and some
Did you really know me, boy? (Did you really know me, boy?)
Did you really know me? (Did you really know me?)
[Verse 2]
Yeah, my favorite band is Toadies
Bet you couldn't name one song
Meanwhile, I sang you "Heaven"
Just to make you smile and sing along
Did you know I danced in a storm
On a beach in Mexico?
All by myself in the rain
Some people don't mind bein' alone
[PreChorus]
Did you know that control is a disease?
You say you see it now
Did you know that your words are on repeat?
Intentions six feet down
[Chorus]
And I was right there (And I was right there)
You shoulda tried listening (You shoulda tried listening)
And, no, it's not fair (And, no, it's not fair)
What you're askin' of me (What you're askin' of me)
You said I was givin' up right as you were showin' up
I can take a little, but you took all I had and some
Did you really know me, boy? (Did you really know me, boy?)
Did you really know me? (Did you really know me?)
Like a vinyl skippin' 'round, love became a broken sound
Candle slowly burnin' now, no reason to stick around
Did you really know me, boy? (Did you really know me, boy?)
Did you really know me? (Did you really know me?)
[Bridge]
Did you know I loved you so?
Wished you believed me then
I never wanted to go
But I deserve more than a ring on my hand
[Chorus]
You said I was givin' up right as you were showin' up (Oh yeah)
I can take a little, but you took all I had and some (I can take, you took all I had and some)
Did you really know me, boy? (Ooh)
Did you really know me? (Did you really know me? Yeah)
Like a vinyl skippin' 'round, love became a broken sound (Love became, it became a broken sound)
Candle slowly burnin' now, no reason to stick around (Oh, no reason to stick around)
Did you really know me, boy? (Did you really know me, boy?)
Did you really know me? (Did you really know me?)
[Outro]
(Givin' up, you said I was givin' up)
(I can take, you took all I had and some)
(Did you really know me, boy?)
(Did you really know me?)
(Love became, it became a broken sound)
