I Don't Know Who He Is - Danny Church

Like a scene in science fiction Where the creature will not die I'll be using perfect diction Even though I'm terrified I see you smiling through me Can you find a place to hide? I think I might hear someone Coming out of the corner of my eye I've been meaning to look into your eyes I've seen them a half a million times How have I not seen them act this strange? I've been meaning to look behind your smile I've seen it a half a million times So, how'd I not notice that you have fangs? I just had the strangest vision The apartment was on fire You were standing in the kitchen And you were covered in cherry pie Well, you know I see what's behind your back So you can't tell me, it was just a snack Aww, I think I'm gonna get sick Everybody, everybody I knows got Everybody, everybody I knows got Everybody, everybody I knows got fangs I've been meaning to look into your eyes I've seen them a half a million times How have I not seen them act this strange? I've been meaning to look behind your smile I've seen it a half a million times So, how'd I not notice that you have fangs? Everybody, everybody I knows got Everybody, everybody I knows got Everybody, everybody I knows got fangs Now I got a party at my door And I'm laying on the floor Just trying to catch my breath If you'd just give me a minute No, I don't need no other friend So I will not let you in And if you don't go away Then I'm jumping out the window

There's nothing in the way I walk that could tell you where I'm going There's nothing in the words I speak that can betray anything I'm knowing Don't think about the way I dress, you can fit me on a labeled shelf Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself Ooh I don't know myself I don't mind if you try once in a while I don't mind if I cry once in a while The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream Don't listen to the words I say, weighing up if I'm enlightened Don't shiver as you pass me by, 'cause mister I'm the one who's frightened The police just came and left, they wanted me and no one else Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself I said I don't know myself I don't mind if you try once in a while I don't mind if I cry once in a while The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream Do you remember me, I don't remember you Do you still love me, you know I think you do I have been gone, and some prison warder knows my scream I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream There's only five who know my real name And my mother don't believe they know it What she called me is the way I'm staying And no one'll ever know it Come on all of you big boys, come on all of you elves Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself I said I don't know myself I don't mind if you try once in a while And I don't mind if I cry once in a while

A man we passed just tried to stare me down And when I looked at you You looked at the ground I don't know who he is But I think that you do Dadgummit Who is he, and what is he to you Something in my heart and in your eye Tells me he's not someone just passing by And when you cleared your throat Was that your cue Dadgummit Who is he, and what is he to you Now when I add the sum of you and me I get confused when I keep coming up with three You're too much for one man But not enough for two Dadgummit Who is he and what is he to you Well, you tell me men don't have much intuition Is that what you really thinking love Or are you wishing Before you wreck your old home Be certain of the new Dadgummit Who is he, and what is he to you Dadgummit Who is he, and what is he to you Dadgummit Who is he, and what is, what is What is, what is, what is Dadgummit Who is he, and what is he to you

Many, many years ago on a distant shore Men did gather secretly beyond a hidden door They travelled long and travelled far Dark into the night Yes, this is the place they've chosen To build the Metal site. Congregation rises, starts to chant a hymn Of evil, lust and hatred, the roots of every sin The priest he stands before them, tells them why they are this way Why they worship metal gods each and every day By the hand of Oberon, dark into the deep Love the evil things we do, the secrets that we keep Metal church, unholy, who'll be the sacrifice Metal church, the only, don't you know the time is right Metal church will find you, can't run very far Metal church inside you, knows just who you are No use in speaking out against anything we do While the men of earth they sleep, haven't any clue Now the story starts again, all the time is lost Metal Church begins anew Saving souls that are lost. Metal church, unholy, who'll be the sacrifice Metal church, the only, don't you know the time is right Metal church will find you, can't run very far Metal church inside you, knows just who you are The metal church
