You Don’t Know Me [Live]

[Verse 1: Ben Folds, Ben Folds & Regina Spektor]
I wanna ask you, "Do you ever sit and wonder?
It's so strange that we could be together for so long
Never know, never care what goes on in the other one's head"
Things I've felt but I never said
You said things that I never said
So I'll say something that I should have said long ago

[Chorus: Regina Spektor & Ben Folds]
You don't know me
You don't know me at all (You don't know me at all)

[Verse 2: Ben Folds, Regina Spektor, Both]
You could have just propped me up on the table like a mannequin
Or a cardboard stand-up and paint me (Paint me anything)
Any face that you wanted me to be seen
We're damned by the existential moment that
We saw the couple in the coma, and
It was we who were the cliché
But we carried on anyway
So, sure, I could just close my eyes
Yeah, sure, trace and memorize
But can you go back once you know?

[Chorus: Regina Spektor & Ben Folds]
You don't know me (You don't know me at all)
You don't know me (You don't know me at all, uh)
You don't know me (You don't know me at all)
You don't know me (You don't know me)

[Bridge: Ben Folds]
If I'm the person that you think I am
Clueless chump you seem to think I am
So easily led astray
An errant dog who occasionally escapes and needs a shorter leash, then
(Why the fuck would you want me back?)

[Chorus: Regina Spektor]
You don't know me at all
You don't know me, you don't know me

[Verse 3: Ben Folds & Regina Spektor]
So, what I'm tryna say is
What (What?), I'm tryna tell you
It's not gonna come out like I wanna say it
I know you'll only change it (Say it)

[Chorus: Regina Spektor & Ben Folds]
You don't know me (You don't know me at all)
You don't know me at all (No, you don't know me at all)
You don't know me (You don't know me at all)
You don't know me at all (No, you don't know me)
(What?)
