Hiro's Song (Demo - 2000)

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 (at all)

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

Or a cardboard stand-up and paint me (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 memorize,

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 (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 (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 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 (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 (at all)

(You don't know me)

You don't know me at all
