You Don't Know Me (They Don't Understand)
Center of attention once againThey don't understandThey don't understandThen they try to tell me who I amBut they don't understandThey don't understand
If you want a perfect picture to believe inThen you can't be looking for me then
I don't need to live by your rules, you don't control meUntil you've walked a mile in my shoes, you don't know meAnd I know, I know, I know you don't like itYou don't, you don't, you don't know where I've beenIt's my life so truth be told(I see you thinking but there's just one thing clearAnd you think you know but you don't have no ideaThink you know me but there's more to see my love)
The same arguments time and time againAnd you watched them all happenBut they don't understandThinkin' you're the reason that it endsAnd he won't be back againBut they don't understand, no
If you want a perfect picture to believe inThen you can't be looking for me then
I don't need to live by your rules, you don't control meUntil you've walked a mile in my shoes, you don't know meAnd I know, I know, I know you don't like itYou don't, you don't, you don't know where I've beenIt's my life so truth be toldYou don't know me
The girl you see in photographs is onlyA part of the one I am, don't judge meCause that's not reality and all I can beIs in love with who I'm becoming
(Think you know me but there's more to see my loveAnd you think you know but you don't have no idea)
I don't need to live by your rules, you don't control meUntil you've walked a mile in my shoes, you don't know meAnd I know, I know, I know you don't like itYou don't, you don't, you don't know where I've beenIt's my life so truth be toldYou don't know me
I don't need to live by your rules, you don't control meUntil you've walked a mile in my shoes, you don't know meAnd I know, I know, I know you don't like itYou don't, you don't, you don't know where I've beenIt's my life so truth be told(I see you thinking but there's just one thing clearAnd you think you know but you don't have no ideaThink you know me but there's more to see my love)
