"I Don't Even Know You"
Wistappear
________________
==============



i know
i sit right next to you now
even though the story won't grow
don't shut me off

hello
i can see you
standing in the heat right there
but don't warm me up

move
get out of my space
you'll never see my face again
but don't tell the cops

and still
i'm feeling no release
speaking words of wisdom and despair
a flash in the dark
a crack in the bark


_//\\_ It's nice to meet you
_//\\_ Another read-through
_//\\_ Where I say all I want

|'::::::::::'| But I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you


i know
i seem so vexed to you now
even though I hope it won't show
don't call me out

i'll pretend
it might be good for me now
to dip my feet where I can't swim
but I couldn't help
but feel the need to stay where we stood
and work so tough to talk right in
or just talk it off

they go
but I don't even move
as long as you're stuck in that chair
i'll keep with you
i'll keep with you


_//\\_ It's nice to meet you
_//\\_ Another read-through
_//\\_ Where I say all I want

|'::::::::::'| But I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you


i let you dig
as if I'm handing you a spade
i lay it heavy
as if I'm showing you I'm ready
i wring it out
the juices dripping dirty
i stomp it out
i stomp it sturdy

\\\\And it drains me
////And it drains me
\\\\And it drains me
////And it drains me


|'::::::::::'| But I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you
|'::::::::::'| I don't even know you


i know
i sit right next to you now
even though the story won't grow
don't shut me off

hello
i can see you
standing in the heat right there
but don't warm me up
