You Don't Know Me
Im a ghost of a girl
that you looked right past
Im a voice you didnt want to hear
Im a page in a book
that you read too fast
But Im still here
You never cared, never tried,
never even asked
Maybe I didnt want to say
You shut your eyes, told your lies
Then you had your laugh
and thats okay
Cause you dont know me
You dont want to know whats real
And Im not sorry
for who I am, for what I feel
If you dont know me
Ive got more on my mind
than I ever told
Ive got pain that youve never felt
Ive got the scars,
I can deal with it on my own
Ive got stories that Ill never tell
But maybe its just as well
Cause you dont know me
You dont want to know whats real
And Im not sorry
for who I am, for what I feel
If you dont know me
Im strong, Im a mess
Altogether an emotional wreck
I can scream,
I can beg you to see Im alive
Im awake, Im unglued
Im not gonna break down now
Cause you dont know me
You dont want to know whats real
And Im not sorry
Cause you dont know me
You dont want to know whats real
And Im not sorry
for who I am, for what I feel
Cause you dont know me
You dont want to know whats real
And Im not sorry for who I am
You don't understand just how I feel
Cause you dont know me
