You Don't Know Me歌词

My mind is wandering it is pondering
in this cheap cafe
Writing poetry so thoughtlessly
mental fabric frayed
Smoking cigarettes trying to forget
while my lungs decay
I'm wondering what you'd say

But you don't know me
and I wish you did
You don't know me
uh la la la la
You don't know me
and I wish you did
You don't know me
uh la la la la

And there you are like a rising star
so heroically
And I'm a silhouette that you forget
I am stale whipped cream
Just a courtesan on a baby grand
in your periphery
that you no longer need

Cause you don't know me
and I wish you did
but you don't know me
uh la la la la
You don't know me
and I wish you did
but you don't know me
uh la la la la

Night after night
I sing pain and pride on this seasoned stage
I'm your invisible
inaudible princess of rage
You don't see the scars
or feel the bars of my golden cage
You just turn the page

Cause you don't know me
and I wish you did
but you don't know me
uh la la la la
You don't know me
and I wish you did
but you don't know me
uh la la la la
Cause you don't know me
and I wish you did
but you don't know me
uh la la la la
You don't know me
and I wish you did
but you don't know me
uh la la la la
