You Know by Eric Detzel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My inner monologue isn't a sonnet dawg
It's a skirmish with a malnourished demonic hog
Devouring every thought in me
Hourly it's assaulting me
Insulting me then salting me
Cooking me then engulfing me
This sonic veracity gotten me white knuckled
White walled straight jacketed tight buckled
My inner demon is cheating me this adultery's
Beating me to a pulp 'til it's calling me life's cuckold
Wha wha wha? Uh-oh!
Wasn't this little bundle
Supposed to be the gift that's lifting the setting sun though?
What? No! What am I conjuring that up for?
This juxtaposition of bliss and internal uproar
Is pissing me off more
It's a limitless downpour
Of cognitive dissonance this isn't the crown worn
By the king of this house more
A thing for a clown or
A jester this blessing's a pressure that I didn't account for
[Pre-Chorus]
And then an ocean surrounds me
Quicksand the rope is tied
My peril becomes the barrel
Screaming, "open wide"
The pendulum is confounding
I guess I chose this ride
But then your presence around me
Heals my hopeless cries

[Chorus]
You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind
You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind

[Verse 2]
Uh, can't remember the last time
Uh, I was able to pass time
With my right mind, it left me no site line
I ain't lying milk carton kids ain't harder to find (aww)
Then enter Sertraline on the scene
Keeping my search from flailing
Provided the catalyst to battle this curtailing
Of the synapses firing happiness failing
It isn't an option
Honestly when you dropped in
Confidence had me locked in
Hollowness held me hostage
You blossomed, I'm an optimist playing possum
An enigma riddled problem like a super villain in Gotham
And you? A beautiful Godsend
Stopping every deposit the devil's shot at me constant
Blocked by you waddling
God let me bottle this
Jolliness up in a shot
For the next stumbling block
That knocks me to rock bottom
So I can swallow it and stop wallowing
[Pre-Chorus]
And then an ocean surrounds me
Quicksand the rope is tied
My peril becomes the barrel
Screaming, "open wide"
The pendulum is confounding
I guess I chose this ride
But then your presence around me
Heals my hopeless cries

[Chorus]
You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind
You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind

[Verse 3]
C'mon get up!
Ooh baby girl do your dance
Ooh baby girl do your dance
Ooh baby girl do your dance
Ooh baby girl do your dance
Break it down now!
Ooh baby girl clap them hands
Ooh baby girl clap them hands
Ooh baby girl clap them hands
Ooh baby girl clap them hands
Let's go!
Ooh baby girl flash that smile
Ooh baby girl flash that smile
Ooh baby girl flash that smile
Ooh baby girl flash that smile
Let's go!
Ooh baby girl drive me wild
Ooh baby girl drive me wild
Ooh baby girl drive me wild
Ooh baby girl drive me wild
(Haha girl you know that laugh drives me crazy)
[Chorus]
You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind
You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind

You know that I
Can't see your face without flying
Ooh baby girl you get me high
You know your smile's
The ship that takes me to Orion
And opens up the curtain I'm behind
You know that I
Can't see your face, yea
You know your smile's what lifts the curtain
Lifts the curtain on my life
Yeah!
