I Don't Even Know Myself

Nothing in the way I walk

That could tell you where I'm going

Nothing in the words I speak

Can betray anything I'm knowing

Think about the way I dress

You can fit me on a labeled shelf

Don't pretend that you know me

'Cause I don't even know myself

I don't know myself

I don't mind if you try once in a while

And I don't mind if I cry once in a while

The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem

I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream

Listen to the words I say

Weighing up if I'm enlightened

Shiver as you pass me by

'Cause mister I'm the one who's frightened

The police just came and left

They wanted me and no one else

Don't pretend that you know me

'Cause I don't even know myself

Don't know myself

I don't mind if you try once in a while

I don't mind if I cry once in a while

The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem

And now I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream

Don't pretend that you know me

'Cause I don't even know myself

Don't know myself

You remember me, I don't remember you

Do you still love me, you know I think you do

I have been gone

And some prison warder knows my scream

I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream

There's only five who know my real name

My mother don't believe they know it

What she called me is the way I'm staying

And no one'll ever know it

Come on all of you big boys

Come on all of you elves

Don't pretend that you know me

'Cause I don't even know myself

Don't know myself

I don't mind if you try once in a while

And I don't mind if I cry once in a while
