My mind is wandering it is pondering in this cheap cafe Writing poetry so thoughtlessly, mental fabric frayed Smoking 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
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 But you don't know me and I wish you did but 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 invisble, 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 me uh la la l a la
