T-Bone Lyrics

I want to hurt you I don't know why
I want to hurt you I don't know why
I want to hurt you I don't know why
Woke up this morning in a cemetery kinda weary
Looked over my shoulder and I seen somebody just been freshly buried
Was kinda scary 'cause my shirt was soaked in blood man
But I had no knowledge
I don't remember even leavin' the house man
Can't explain how I got here
It's like I was walkin' but I was unconscious
But I had to be wallin'
'Cause I seen the bloody machete ah
It was used on the victim to shred him up
Oh my god don't tell me I
Oh shit
Something's going wrong I don't know what's going on
All I know was I was home then I woke up here alone
Wondering who was in that hole I ain't stickin' around to know
My mind is blank and I'm so cold and I don't know which way to go
Runnin' in the rain
I'm barely breathin' more like wheezin'
Runnin' in the rain
How could this be what I was heavin'
I made it to my house I closed the blinds and shut the door
Somebody please tell me what's going on 'cause I don't fuckin know
I want to hurt you I don't know why
I want to hurt you I don't know why
I want to hurt you I don't know why
I want to hurt you I don't know why
Jumped in the shower washed the blood from off my body
Rolled up a blunt I'm feeling psychotic mixed me up some ginentonic
But I'm nauseous feeling woozy like I'm in the twilight zone the movie
How did I do it how did I get through it
And I wondered if anyone knew what I was doing
Sat down and clicked on the tube
Flipped to the news I'm trying to find answers
Who's body is on my hands and how did the situation get so drastic
Its madness
And I just can't take no more I passed out
Couldn't help but crash out from last night I'm dashed out
Slept for a minute but I didn't sleep to long before
I was awakin' by some heavy bangin' on my door
It was the popo 'cause inside they shined their flashlights
Gotta funny feeling this has something to do with last night
They tried to tell me that I'm wanted for kidnap and murder
Tellin' me they got proof that I murdered my ex-employer
Don't think my lawyer can help me with this one
I grabbed my pistol put the clip in
And I'm out the back window
I'm gone.
The song 'You Don't Know' by T-Bone is a dramatic narrative of a man who has no control over his desires. The repeated line "I want to hurt you I don't know why" illustrates the singer's inner demons and his inability to resist them. The audio starts with him waking up in a cemetery covered in blood with a freshly dug grave as if he had killed someone. He has no recollection of what happened and is plagued with fear and confusion. As he returns home, he tries to cope by drinking and smoking but is haunted with guilt and anxiety. The situation gets worse as the police show up with an arrest warrant for the murder of the singer's ex-boss. The fear of punishment leads him to snap and flee from the authorities.
The lyrics of this song are deep, dark, and full of angst. The singer's perspective is portrayed as someone who has lost control over his life and emotions. The repeated phrase 'I want to hurt you I don't know why' symbolizes his inner conflict between his desire to harm others and his inability to understand the root cause of his violent behavior. The singer's character is dichotomous that is, he seems like a victim of his actions but feels no remorse for them. The song is an emotional rollercoaster that lingers in the mind of the listener long after it's over.
