You Still Don't Know

The day that you come back to me
I never thought I'd see it
And now it's here, I still don't understand
To hear you say you love me
Was all I thought I needed
But you don't know what love is, or who I am

And all the things you said before,
I guess you never knew
That they could go on hurting me so long
I guess you didn't even care
If the words you said were true
But I haven't heard you say that they were wrong

CHORUS:
So the castle turns to sand
And the girl you love is just a hologram
And you're on your knees, but you're not praying
And you still don't know
You still don't know what you're saying
You still don't know what you're saying

You talk about the good times
As if you weren't around
When lightning struck our castle in the air
Now you seem to think that we can
Build on solid ground
And pretend that all the wreckage isn't there

I can't build a future
If you're living in the past
Or be your light if you don't want to see
I can't give forgiveness
If you don't know how to ask
And you still don't know just what you've done to me

CHORUS
