You don't know

How can I trust you,
When I’ve never trusted anyone
How can you ask for my love,
When I don’t know what it is

You think you know me,
Do you really?
You’ve barely starched the surface
Of my lost essence

You don’t know what it’s like
To live my life,
To live in a lie,
To be unwanted

You don’t know how hard it is
To hide behind a sneer
And a fancy smile
While tears are welling in my eyes

For I’ve known
Nothing but pain and sorrow
In this
Sorry life
