You Didn't Know
You didn't know him
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him, you didn't know
Young girl
You say you met a man
Swearing you are the only one who understands him
He stole your heart
Held it in his hand
Slowly tangled it up in a web of his commands
How could you know?
No, you couldn't know
You didn't know him
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him, you didn't know
He was your first love
Yeah, he likes it that way
Keep you promising
You'll never think of another face
He took all your dreams and your family
Put 'em on a leash just out of your reach, sayin'
"You got nothing left to lean on but me
Who's your daddy?
So where you gonna go?"
You didn't know him
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him, you didn't know
Forgetting yourself comes easy
When the only one you see treats you like nothing
You even start believing
That if you escape, you'll waste away
When wasting's all that happens when you stay
Your hero becomes your demon
There's nowhere to hide
And you're terrified to leave him
You're far from the only one
Getting beat up by that trip he's on
And with each turn around the sun
He'll steal another star out of the sky
'Til whatever's in the dark is brought to light
(You didn't know, you didn't know him)
(You didn't know, you didn't know him)
We turn a blind eye to evil
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
For the sake of hanging on to what's familiar
(For the sake of hanging on to what's familiar)
Money wipes clean any slate
Power's louder than the pain, so
We turn a blind eye to evil
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
For the sake of hanging on to what's familiar
(For the sake of hanging on to what's familiar)
Money wipes clean any slate
Power's louder than the pain
Of those who beg for justice for their fight
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
As another star is stolen from the night
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
And another angel falls out of the sky
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
'Til whatever's in the dark is brought to light
(You didn't know, you didn't know him)
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
(You didn't know, you didn't know him)
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
(You didn't know, you didn't know him)
(We turn a blind eye to evil)
(You, you, you didn't, you, you, you didn't, you didn't know)
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him
You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him, you didn't know
Young girl
You say you met a man
Swearing you are the only one who understands him
He stole your heart
Held it in his hand
Slowly tangled it up in a web of his commands

You didn't know, you didn't
You didn't know him, you didn't know

(We turn a blind eye to evil)
(You, you, you didn't, you, you, you didn't, you didn't know)
