lyrics

You know you know
I always wanted for more
You know how I left it in Peoria
You know when you first met me
That I would not be easy

You know you know
The fight is not the same thing
Take the problem give it a name
When I wake tomorrow
Will I still feel crazy?

What if all these fantasies were not mine alone
What if they were part of something new?

Don’t you worry about me
That was never my invention
We should forget it
We could just let it be the drift of our history
You don’t worry about me
That was never my intention
But I won’t wreck it
I won’t let it change what we wanna do anyway

You know you know
I always wanted for more
You know how I left it in Peoria
You know when you first read me
That I was on to something

You know you’re not a revolutionary
You know you know maybe I could
Be someone to someone
I could make somebody different
