"Don't You Know Who I Am?"Don't You Know Who I Am?By: Chica: Tofu Ninja"Don't you know who I am?" Zelda yells to the world, She's getting louder, Getting stronger, Getting weaker all the same. How could we? How could we not? How could we not know who she is? But she's crying, We're lying And likewise they're dying. She's hidden away, Won't stay the day, Since she's hidden away. What do we know? What can we know? She's the princess, Destiny, Dreams, Prophecies, What more is there? What more is there to know?
"Don't you know who I am?" Link asks the whole land. Yes, Yes, we do, We know you are, The hero, Our star, Anytime, Near or far, You're our star. A hero, It's muttered That word we just uttered, A hero, He cringes, He slides away, Goes away. How can we not know? What about the scars? Yes, you wish on the stars For it all to be the end, But can't you see it bend? It's so easy, It shows, He's a hero, No zero, Our hero.
"Don't you know who I am?" Saria's crying, But that's not news, Is it? And how would we know? Does it show? Does it show Where we go, What we know, What we do, Give us a clue, Does it show? Where is Link? Has he stopped to take a drink From the pool of youth, Eternal youth And luck? Trapped in old friendship, She writhes, Oh, she turns, Crying with heart ache, She burns, Oh, she burns. We don't know, We don't know And it shows.
"Don't you know who I am?" Asked the faired skinned Farm girl. She screams, You can hear it, Can you bear To even hear it? It's loud, It's so cold, So helpless, Can you hear it? She needs the help; Our help, Hear the yelps The yells of pain, Nothing to gain And for her it's a strain Just to live, Just to cry.
"Don't you know who I am?" It echoes, It bounces, It ceases. The old and grayed soul Doesn't know where to go. Rauru sits And he waits, Destiny, Fates, All important dates That can't be forgotten For he's going rotten, Getting old, Not so bold, He's forgotten. But he yearns To get out, And to shout, To be young, But he can't, Don't you see He's forgotten?
"Don't you know who I am?" She screams to the sand. It's Nabooru, She's lost, Confused, But nothing new. It's Nabooru, The thief, The woman, The girl lost inside Trying to hide From the problems. Can't you see That's she's sad? That's she's Going so mad? Don't you see That she's not free, Yet she's begging to be, To know who she is, To do as she pleases, But she's not free, So not free.
"Don't you know who I am?" The desert man calls, It's all misunderstood, We'd believe if we could, Yet we can't. He's just evil, So evil, But he wants not to be, Can't you see? Don't you know Who he is? There's so much That's missing, That's gone from the life, All the gold, All the wives, Where's it at? Where's it at? "In the past." Says the man.
"Don't you know who I am?" Ruto wails to the water, It's her, Their dear daughter, She's confused, She's in love But not sent From above. She's a fool, Isn't it clear? She has so many fears, She's a fool. Wanting to lead, To take hold of herself, She's a mess, Such a mess, Just take a look, No studies No books Are needed to see That she needs to be free And to lead.
"Don't you know who I am?" Impa's distressed, What a mess, Swords clanging, Clashing, There's lightening that's flashing Reminding her she's alone, So alone. How it feels, How she deals, Oh the tears, How it feels To be so alone, Just to be so alone. The last of a race Disrespected; Her face, She's alone.
"Don't you know who I am?" Darunia's clearly Not living up the Potential he wants, The one which it haunts, Yes, watch it tease, Oh, it taunts. Such an idiot, He feels like a fool, Just a strong thing, A tool, He can't see, Just won't be Anything more Than he hasn't been yet, Can't you see? Can't you see? He won't cry, He's too strong He's been strong All along, It's clear He has nothing to fear...
"Don't you know who I am?'' Says the kokiri boy, As he plays with a toy, Throws it down, Hard, On the ground. "Don't you know?" He's getting mad, He's rather sad, It's visible He has been had, So jealous, Of Link And their games, Of their fame, Of it all, Just jealous. With the looks of a bully, He's so soft underneath, The sword under the sheath, He's just jealous, Of everything; Jealous.
"Don't you know who I am?" The faerie cries out to the land, But they don't hear, And never, Don't wanna, Ain't gonna. She was his friend, Till the end, Such a friend, But it's gone, She's alone, At the end. She remembers the playing, And not the slaying, But the games, Not the fame, And where has it left? Down the drain, Perhaps theft, It's gone, Friendships left her, She's afraid.
"Don't you know who I am" He yells out, Takes a stand, But he can't, Oh, the roots, They're stuck in, Never loose. How does it feel? How does it feel To be able to deal And to live with their lives, Their sweet kokiri minds, Never corrupted, Oh, how does it feel? No answer, There's no answer, It's the cancer, The Evil desert man, How does it feel, Oh, how does it feel?
"Don't you know who we are" Cry the children, So near, So far. So innocent, So pure, Evil's cure Is found within The sheltered forest, To woods, It's so safe, Perfect place, Yet they wonder And want, They want some more But just can't afford To try, Don't you know it?
"Don't you know who I am?" Tells the phantom desert man, Confused And Misused, At the end of his fuse, It's all empty, None left, All the steam Wasn't kept. Not quite useful, Second best, Mind experiments, Now it's messed Up, His head, All alone, Sort of dead, A ghost of the man, Oh that lost Desert Man, Just a ghost...
"Don't you know who I am?" He shivers, It's cold, He stands out, Yes, he's bold. The dark version of the hero, He's not so full, more of a Zero, Wondering what to do Now that it's through. They don't know who he is, What he is, They don't care, To him It's not fair, They don't care. It's cold, It's so icy, But it doesn't hurt, It just feels good, So good, So good, It's just as it should But they don't know Who he is...
"Don't you know who I am?" It's Sheik, Perhaps Zelda, No, it's Sheik, He's not weak, He's too strong, He'll be fine But his mind, Oh, his mind, It's so twisted, Not listed, It's so confused, He feels so used, It will be fine, Sheik, It will be fine If you just clear your mind And forget the Charades And the dark Masquerades, It will be fine, Yes, It's fine.
"Don't you know who I am?" They both sing, They're so old, Yet they feel so young, But they're feeble, So evil, Getting up there, Just to stare Not to care, Almost there, Almost dead, Does it scare them? Oh, their heads, It hurts, It's a headache. Powers gone, Faded now, Don't know why, Don't know how. Together too long, They're so weak, Not yet strong, They're so old.
"Don't you know who I am?, Know the real me, Who I am? I see you stand, You're raising your hand. Think you know me? Care to show me? Didn't think so, You don't know me, Never did, Did you? You see me, You see what I write, What I do. Think you know -me-? Think again, Think again."
"Don't you know who I am?" Shouts the skull, The lone skull. He's upset at the world, There's no friends, Just the ends Of relationships past, They went by too fast Because of too many tricks, Too many pranks, Too much, Too many, Not enough, Not any. But it's always been this way, Another heartache More of a delay, Nothing to repay, He's always been this way, Didn't you know? Don't you know?
You think you know them, You think you know. Think you know That you've got it all clear, Yet it seems you know nothing, Do you, my dear? And about me? Don't you know who I am?
