Billy Elliot - You Don't Know

Closed eyelids smiling
You're compromising
All of your ambition
Novel admission to a brand new
Sector of life that can't be lived alone
You're sick of being on your own

You see him dying
It's no big deal
Youthful collision between his head and heaven's wheel
That same old feeling that's always haunting you
The search for a muse

Try and take their hand
Maybe then you'll both understand why
It's so
Hard to stay in love
To give up all of your own ego

It's gonna fail,
You both just know it
It's always raining but still you think somehow that
You'll make it pretty out of the wreckage left behind
As you lose your mind

So take that hand
Just come along
You're not that pretty
He's not that strong
Enough to respect on who is apart from his own self
It's your chosen hell

It's not right and you know
Two souls will only ever be
Two souls
Don't think of Plato
He never lived the life that
You've come to know

And now you're crying, he's compromising
The way he feels towards you
You're just being used

And now he's angry and you feel hurt
You mix your feelings to create worth
It never works

I'm just tired, all these games are
Such uninspired shows
The contestants hold on to just cry and cry and throw
It away
Don't you fucking dare
Ask to ever hold my pure hands again
You don't know who you are
