You Don't Know Me Lyrics

I'm a ghost of a girl that you looked right past
I'm a voice you didn't wanna hear
I'm a page in a book that you read too fast
But I'm still here
You never cared, never tried, never even asked
Maybe I didn't wanna stay
You shut your eyes, told your lies then you had your laugh
And thats okay
Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know it's real
And I'm not sorry
For who I am, for what I feel
Cause you don't know me
I got more on my mind than I ever told
I got pain that you never felt
I got the scars
I can deal with it on my own
I've got stories that I'll never tell

But maybe its just as well
Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know it's real
And I'm not sorry
For who I am, for what I feel
You don't know me
I'm strong, I'm a mess
Altogether an emotional wreck
I can scream, I can beg you to see I'm alive
I'm awake, I'm unglued
I'm not gonna break down, now
Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know it's real
And I'm not sorry
Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know it's real
And I'm not sorry
For who I am, for what I feel
Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know it's real
I'm not sorry
For who I am, you don't understand
Just how I feel
You don't know me.
