there’s a girl i used to know
she taught me how to grow
and how to keep my head up
when i’m feeling low
she taught me how to laugh
she taught me how to cry
she taught me how to feel alive
when i feel like i wanna die
she taught me how to love
she taught me how to hate
she taught me how to dance through life
with a smile upon my face
there’s a boy inside of me
he’s longing to be free
he is telling me that i got all i need
he wants me to leave
start my own society
look up at the sky
through my sorry old foolish fading eyes
there’s a man i used to know
he taught me how to ease my load
he taught me how to look at myself
and see the feelings i don’t show
he taught me how to give
he taught me how to live
he taught me how to be grateful
for all my failures and regrets
he taught me how to see
he taught what it means
when i looked into his eyes
i saw the man was me
well you know
i don’ believe
in anything
i cannot see
when you know that you don’t know
you will start to know
