The Cribs and Lee Ranaldo Lyrics - I Don't Know Who I Am

The Cribs and Lee Ranaldo - I Don't Know Who I Am

Sometimes I think it's strange I'll never see you
Then I realize
I've been watching you my whole life in every
Look I don't recognize
Every feature in my face with no relation
From my mother's side
Shows where we came from

I was looking so hard I missed the sign that
I'd been waiting for
An obituary wrote in the local paper
From a town that is no more
Carrying this around gains nothing but I'm
Fool enough to care
Brave enough to try

I tried it
You know I tried it
I tried it

Are you a raw nerve like I am or are you more like
The bathrooms in the park?
Closed for the season every season
Seen in the lighter's spark
The moment that the world began, it's ending
Captured by chance on a field recording

We caught it
It's not important

You wouldn't love me
Keep out of my way, I'm not in your way
You wouldn't love me
Descend a marble staircase
Slap me in my face
I don't know what I am

There's a telegraph pole, reminds me of you
Its shadow against the sky
Buzzing in the night but no one gets through
No longer on the line
Messages unheard are staying that way
Bouncing back like echoes in the valley

In the valley
In the valley

You wouldn't love me
Keep out of my way, I'm not in your way
You wouldn't love me
Descend a marble staircase
Slap me in my face
I don't know what I am, ooh

I don't know what I am, ooh
I don't know what I am
I don't know what I am
