Fictional Man

Music & Lyrics: J. Himmelsbach

You think that I'm the one you dreamed of
You think you got me figured out
But I got so much more inside me
You never bothered to know about
You think that we are soulmates, hun-nay
You think we really got it good
But I been dyin' behind this smilin' surface
And there's one thing I've never understood

How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
You never see the real me, you're in love with a fictional man

A holy man can be a sinner
Behind his thick internal doors
In a world where the sheep all wear the clothing of the wolf
Nothing's certain anymore
You got them rosy glasses, hun-nay
You're seein' what you want to see
You're so determined to love someone perfect
But what makes you think that someone is me

How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
You never see the real me, you're in love with a fictional man

You think that I'm the one you dreamed of
But dreams have a way of falling flat
You decided you loved me completely
You've only got yourself to blame for that
We two were never soulmates, hun-nay
In fact I'm not even sure that we were friends
I just hope that someday, you can overcome, babe
The blinding lies on which your love depends

How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
You never see the real me, you're in love with a fictional man

How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
How can you love me, when you don't know who I am
You never see the real me, you're in love with a fictional man
