I put my trust in a bottle
And I gave it to the Atlantic seven years ago
So I never had any to put in you
Which is only good news since you're saying goodbye, oh I
I wish I could be a stranger
And pass you on the street with nothing but blank eyes, oh I
I wish I could be a mannequin
The one that our reflections in, as we're walking by, oh I
You, you don't wanna know me
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
You, you don't wanna know me
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
I left a part of me, maybe just the empathy
On the side of the broken highway 43
Being cold isn't hard to do
When you favor bad news
When you favor bad news, oh
I wish I could be a statue
The one where the moss grew, outside of your high school
I wish I could be the deer head
Hanging on the wall instead of hanging on to you
You, you don't wanna know me
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
You, you don't wanna know me
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
You, you don't wanna know me
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
You, you don't wanna know me
You, ooh-ooh, you, ooh-ooh
