I Wouldn't Know
Unanswered Echoes: A Tale of Lost Connections in Burnin' Daylight's 'I Wouldn't Know'
Lyrics
Everyone I see these days still asks me about you
People frequently inquire about you, assuming we're still together.
I guess they got so used to us together they assume
Others have grown accustomed to our presence and make assumptions about our relationship.
That everything's ok and then I have to say
I'm compelled to clarify that things are not okay when asked about you.
I wouldn't know I haven't seen him
I am unaware of your current situation as I haven't seen you.
I couldn't say it's been awhile
I can't provide information as it's been a while since I last saw you.
I haven't thought about him lately
Thoughts about you haven't crossed my mind recently.
So I wouldn't know
Overall, I lack knowledge about your current circumstances.
I'm getting tired of people askin'
It's becoming tiresome when people persistently inquire about you.
Why can't they just leave me alone
Expressing a desire for others to respect my privacy and stop questioning me.
Cause I couldn't care, I couldn't say, I wouldn't know
Emphasizing my indifference and lack of information regarding your situation.
I don't get out anymore to our old stompin' grounds
I avoid visiting places we used to go together.
Cause some old friend is bound to ask me why you're not around
To evade uncomfortable questions from friends about your absence.
Well I just stay away, so I don't have to say
Choosing to stay away to avoid discussing the reasons for your absence.
I wouldn't know I haven't seen him
Reiterating my lack of knowledge about your current whereabouts or well-being.
I couldn't say it's been awhile
Confirming my inability to provide information due to the passage of time.
I haven't thought about him lately
Not actively thinking about you lately, adding to my lack of information.
So I wouldn't know
Emphasizing the ongoing lack of awareness regarding your current status.
I'm getting tired of people askin'
Expressing frustration at the persistent inquiries from others about you.
Why can't they just leave me alone
An appeal for people to respect my need for solitude and stop probing into my personal life.
Cause I couldn't care, I couldn't say, I wouldn't know
Reiterating my indifference and lack of information regarding your situation.
