toad the wet sprocket – know me lyrics
i love an object, singular thing
carried beside me and flaunted for me
well i know i’m not holy, just partially good
no time for my family, patience to brood
i want to be a great man,
a hero, a martyr, immortal i’d stand
well i haven’t the guts to touch lepers or queers
though i’m happy to waste away time with you here
should i have believed i was still a boy
naive and sane, protected wholly
tongue-tied and restless
breathing of futures
know me; i am not a child
‘though you have age
you have not felt the pain…
should i have remained obedient and docile
so far restrained
the hands that hold me back
could break my bones
as each one snaps
i hate my home
far on my way
i should know, i was born here
know me, know me
am i just some fool? am i far from ready?
just let me fall and i’ll believe you.
chained up and pampered i strain until i crack
know me before you kill what i want to be
and leave me cold
bled white
and feeling old
far on my way
i should know, i was born here
know me know all i am
far on my way
i was cold then i exploded
know me
