Hounds are tearing at me feet
Clouds are rolling in
Tears are hounding at my old sleeves
Distance clears my vision
Why don’t you love me
You know me so well
You say things I don’t understand
I deserve a reason
It’s too hard to tell
It hurts ‘cause you know me so well
I don't need your compliments
They smell like cigarettes
Don't try to soothe me with Quincy Jones
I wish your sun would set
Why don’t you love me
You know me so well
You say things I just can’t let go
I deserve a reason
I can’t break the spell
It hurts ‘cause you know me so well
I'll believe anything that you tell me
But I won't do whatever you say
We both lose either way
We both lose either way
I put my foot in that swinging door
I won't let it close
There's a puzzle piece lying somewhere on the floor
You're the one who should know
Why don’t you love me
You know me so well
Now I’m gonna make you explain
I deserve a reason
Escape from this hell
It hurts ‘cause you know me so well
It hurts ‘cause you know me so well
It hurts ‘cause you know me so well
