IDK You Yet by Alexander 23
I think this song was meant for me, from me.
I miss someone I haven't been in many many years
I miss someone I long to be
I miss her so much my eyes are filled with tears
"How can you miss someone you've never met?
'Cause I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I don't know myself yet
All I know is I'm filled with regret.
"But can you find me soon because I'm in my head?"
Once more I am struggling to get out of bed
"Yeah, I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I don't know who I am without being stressed
I don't know how I'll be when I'm not drepressed
"'Cause lately it's been hard"
The littlest things trigger my heart
"They're sellin' me for parts"
People think I am complete but I am in shards
"And I don't wanna be modern art"
I don't want to keep pretending that I don't have a broken heart
"But I only got half a heart to give to you"
I only have half a heart that is still true
"How can you miss someone you've never seen?
Oh, tell me are your eyes brown, blue, or green?"
I don't recognise the face in the mirror
My tear filled eyes won't allow me to see any clearer
I know it's me
but it's a me I've never wanted to be
"And do you like it with sugar and cream?"
I don't know, can life be a sweet dream?
"Or do you take it straight, oh, just like me?"
If I can have a straight and simple life please let me see
"Yeah, lately it's been hard"
I am healing but I'm very deeply scarred
"They're sellin' me for parts"
I wish I had the guts to say
that they're giving me parts I don't want to play
"And I don't wanna be modern art"
I am not worthy the price of this so called modern art
"But I only got half a heart to give to you
And I hope it's enough"
My pain might be much but it is true
If the last piece of me isn't enough . . .
nothing else will ever be.
"How can you miss someone you've never met?"
I have never met the happy, healthy me
only the one with a fake smile for all to see
"'Cause I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I need do get better but how when I don't know who I am without it yet
"But can you find me soon because I'm in my head?"
I always overthink of all the things that happened and I haven't said
"Yeah, I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I need to feel differently
I need a better reality
"I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I don't know what healthy is like, yet
"I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I don't know what it is like to not be constantly stressed, yet
"I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I don't know what it is like not to feel depressed, yet
"I need you now but I don't know you yet"
I don't know who I am going to be without all of my misery
I need me now but I don't know me yet.
