[Verse 1]

Long time, no see

So tell me, how are things?

Just 'cause I was wondering whatever became of you

You don't look well

Can't hide it, I can tell

I know you love to hurt yourself

There's some things about you

I wish I never knew


[Chorus]

But I wish that I could say

That we're happier today

Sometimes there's just some things I don't wanna have to know


[Verse 2]

Don't you know me?

Has it been too long a time?

Weren't you once a friend of mine?

It gets so hard to tell

Hoping gets lonely

I'm lonely all the time

Time and circumstance combined

And every other someone else

Helped me kill the pain you felt


[Chorus]

And I wish that I could say

That we're happier today

Sometimes there's just some things I don't wanna know

Sometimes some friends I don't wanna know

Sometimes some things I don't wanna have to know


[Bridge]

The real truth is it brings no peace

To swallow lies that let me sleep

There's some things about you

I wish it wasn't true

There's some things about you

Sometimes I wish I never knew you

Never knew you at all


[Guitar solo]


[Verse 3]

Stayed a stranger ever since

I learned I can't depend on friends

If ignorance is innocence

There's some things about you

I wish I never knew


[Chorus]

And I wish that I could say

That we're happier today

Sometimes there's just some place I don't wanna go

Sometimes, someday, I don't wanna know

Sometimes, some things I don't wanna have to know
