lyrics

You know everyone
you know everything
you know everyone by their first name

You've been everywhere
you've seen everything
you've been everywhere
everywhere but here

You know everyone
you know everything
you know everyone by their first name

no you didn't forget
don't pretend
Say my name, scream my name, take my name

You feel something you
aren't that cold you
see me watchin
watchin me, watchin you

Put on that fake smile
wear your plastic grin
you're not happy there
no you've never been

You feel something you
aren't that cold you
see me watchin
watchin me, watchin you

No you didn't forget
don't pretend
Say my name, scream my name, take my name

Where were you?
Where were you and I?
When I split, when I split my brain
When I left the sane
Lookin up, lookin down, it's all the same

You're the postman you
merely a venue
where my mind's displayed
now go flaunt what I've made

I took this small white shell
cracked it wide open
reach up grab some sky
I leave my home in sin

You're the postman you
merely a venue
where my mind's displayed
now go flaunt what I've made

Where were you?
Where were you and I?
When I split, when I split my brain
When I left the sane

Aren't you so proud of me?

You know everyone
you know everything
you know everyone by their first name

You've been everywhere
you've seen everything
you've been everywhere
everywhere but here

No you didn't forget
don't pretend
Say my name, scream my name, take my name

Lookin up, lookin down, it's all the same
