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   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
