You Don't Know

You Don't Know (你不知道) - Alice Ripley

Do you wake up in the morning

And need help to lift your head

Do you read obituaries

And feel jealous of the dead

It's like living on a cliffside

Not knowing when you'll dive

Do you know

Do you know

What it's like to die alive

When a world that once had color

Fades to white and grey and black

When tomorrow terrifies you

But you'll die if you look back

You don't know

I know you don't know

You say that you're hurting

It sure doesn't show

You don't know

It lays me so low

When you say let go

And I say

You don't know

The sensation that you're screaming

But you never make a sound

Or the feeling that you're falling

But you never hit the ground

It just keeps on rushing at you

Day by day by day by day

You don't know

You don't know

What it's like to live that way

Like a refugee a fugitive

Forever on the run

If it gets me it will kill me

But I don't know what I've done
