I Don't Know

Now, I don't know
(Now I don't know)
But I've been told
(But I've been told)

That's true of everything I think I know
Everything I think (I know)

That I don't know
(That I don't know)
But I've been told
(But I've been told)
Yes I've been told

I don't even know how to begin
I don't even know who I am
I'm not here, no-one is here

I stay awake most every night
Waiting for a glimpse to appear
Where's my ghost in the mirror?
I want one too

I've got a thousand one stories
Every single one of them's a lie

Let me read you a story, let me read you a romance
I will read, you will listen, and this terrible night will pass

When I was a child, I used to play
Play with all the voices in my head
Long, long ago, that's not me anymore

Now I ride the subway every night
Staring at the game on my phone
Keep my head down, I'm all alone

And I don't know if this is me at all, or just some ghost of me
That I dreamed up, just to sing myself to sleep

Or someone that I used to be
Or someone that I will be
Or someone that I am, right now

Or someone that I used to be
Or someone that I will be
Or someone that I am, right now

Or someone that I used to be
Or someone that I will be
Or someone that I am, right now
