My mind is wandering it is pondering in this cheap cafe
Writing poetry so thoughtlessly, menta fabric frayed
Smocking 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 uh 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 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 uh la la la la
