You don't know me
You just love me
You don't know me
You just love me
You don't know me
You just love me
You don't know me
You just love me
You don't know me
You just love

And he was a man, or so he thought
Paid attention to the lessons that he taught
Second hand-me-down blessing
She was short on patience
Carried mace and hated everyday people
The plight of the pessimist
Habitual living, daily schedule consisted of
Work, television and sexual moments
But sometimes it gets so hopeless
When nonsense raises an octave, thoughts block all sensual focus
With a firm grasp on the grudge they both clutched in the name of love
Fear of the results had push ever came to shove
Seduced for fun
Produce a lot of fight
Two youths on the run
Learning some truth about life
And when he stares at the stars, he reflects on the moon
The time, the talks they share walking around Calhoon
And when she watches the look on his face as he sleeps
She recalls every inch to how it got this deep

Now, how am I to know you like the way I laugh?
I can't read the map, no one's ever seen the path
The one you take a bath with is the same one that frees your path
Oh, you going out? What time you gon' be back?

Cause they were two perfect kids in a too perfect world
Today, the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl
Let's all take seats, please quiet during the performance
Lift her, pull her from the orchids

'Cause they were two perfect kids in a too perfect world
Today, the part of man and woman will be played by boy and girl
Trying to read the script but keep getting trapped in the margins
Lift them, pull them from the gardens

That the people that surrounded her seemed to expect the world
And he was tall, over 6', no attempt to predict the fall
Thought he'd seen it all
Until his all became that girl
She said she loves the drugs
She speaks about finishing
She's convinced it's the last visit
Give him just one to grow and watch him collapse inside of a half pint
She dyed her hair black
Maybe now she can relax
Maybe now the regulars will stare half as hard
He wears a old face and beer gut
Existence validation printed on the monthly statements

He thinks she sleeps too much
She thinks he spends too much
He thinks her friends are jokes
She thinks he's out of touch
He thinks she drinks too much
She thinks he thinks too much
It's all another phase, turning the page in the book of growing up

She's seen a lot of sex
He tried to hide his resentment
But there wasn't nothing left for them to label new
But sometimes the obvious ain't simple to see
'Cause even the time that they killed
Wasn't something that she wasn't accustomed to
He was never quite prepared to study the reaching
Together they shared the sacred practices of breathing
The weather was fair, however the hovering clouds weren't leaving

Discover the little drama demons that hide deep inside the frame work
And live in that congested brain
They had old lovers on the side, old flames
That somehow managed to spark regardless of the pouring rains
And each time, they mix up the ingredients
They'd recheck the recipe to see maybe they're reading it incorrectly
Collect me, consume me, release me, snuggle
Two geniuses putting together the pieces to a blank puzzle

Every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world (you don't know me)
Every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world (you just love me)
Every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world (you don't know me)
And every time I chase a squirrel, it rips apart my world (you just love me)

Your horoscope says we should share an apartment
Lift them, pull them from the gardens

You don't know me
You just love me
