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

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
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 careWhat 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 agoYou don't know me, you don't know me at all
You don't know me, you don't know me at allYou could have just propped me up on the table like a mannequin
Or a cardboard stand up and paint me
Any face that you wanted me to be seen withDamned by the existential moment where
We saw the couple in the coma

And it was we who were the clich
But we carried on anywaySo sure I can just close my eyes
Yeah sure, trace and memorize
But can you go back once you knowYou 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 meIf I'm the person that you think I am
Clueless chump you seem to think I am
So easily led astrayAn errant dog who occasionally escapes
And needs a shorter leash then
Why the fuck would you want me back?
Maybe it's becauseYou don't know me at all
You don't know me, you don't know meSo 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 know you'll only change it, say itYou 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?
