I Don't Know
Chris Brenner Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I spent too much time
so deep in my mind
and I'm falling far behind
despite ...
I'm caught asking why

So you think that I've been joking
We can fix what he have broken
Wait a long ... going notice
and focus and focus
So you think I'm acting crazy
I don't know ... you can blame me
wait a long ... going
and focus
and now how to. to feel the cold
Giving up our leading role
tell me is it time to go?
I don't know, I don't know
Someone came in stole the show
He's your high and I'm your low
Tell me is it time to go?
I don't know, I don't know

We, we're growing apart
... lights in the dark
So much different from the start
It's all that I got
He's there and I'm not

So you think that I've been joking
We can fix what he have broken
Wait a long ... going notice
and focus and focus
So you think I'm acting crazy
I don't know ... you can blame me
wait a long ... going notice
and focus
So now I'm ... to feel the cold
Giving up our leading role
tell me is it time to go?
I don't know, I don't know
Someone came in stole the show
He's your high and I'm your low
Tell me is it time to go?
I don't know, I don't know

I don't know I don't know

I don't know

So now I'm ... to lost control
Giving up our leading role
Tell me is it time to go?
I don't know, I don't know
Someone came in stole the show
He's your high and I'm your low
Tell me is it time to go?
I don't know, I don't know

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know, I don't know

I don't know, I don't know
