Don't you know?

Don't you know?
I laugh to cover up the pain
I smile so I won't cry
I keep my mouth shut, so I won't upset you.
but you never know.
you act like a good Christian girl
and you lecture me.
but don't you know?
I can't take the pain of being talked trash about
I don't understand, why you do these things.
you act like I'm going to hell
we're friends
but don't you know?
you can't understand me
so i play pretend
I'm somebody else
definitely not me.
but don't you know?
I'm human.
I make mistakes.
others think I'm funny
but you have to be all righteous
you say it's not funny
you say I'm making you mad
but don't you know?
part of being MY friend
is going with the flow
it's the only way to survive.
but don't you know?
I'm never going to change for you
I would only change for myself
and why would I want to do that?
I'm me.
but don't you know?
I'm human.
& I love me.
