well excuse me while i marvel
at how well you know me
oh, if only
i let you lead and i followed
but you don't want me
you just like to taunt me
yes you do
so pardon me if i'm startled
at how well you can fake it
and just how far you take it
but maybe i'm not really up for friendly conversation
when it's 3am
you're drunk
and i can't understand a goddamn word you're saying
--
[Chorus}
so i won't feel anything
anytime i hear your name
and don't you come around
just to bring me down
'cause i know we don't feel the same
and i'm sorry about my sorry state of constant disarray
but you don't want me anyway
--
i wish you were here
'cause it's that time of year
but you know me
so you won't be
and i'm glad you're sincere
but i don't wanna hear how you know me
i'd rather you just show me
--
[Chorus]
