You Think You Know Me

by *fading*away*   Feb 5, 2006


You think you know me
When I pass you by
You think you understand
Who I really am

But, see
You don't know
You haven't got the faintest idea
About how hurt and broken I feel

I thought you'd care
But you just pretend
You are too preoccupied
And you still want to call yourself
My friend?

Well, I just don't understand
How you can be so cold
I can see through you
And all your absurd lies
How can you be so hard?

We shared it all,
We were all that and then more
Now you pretend like you don't know me
I guess you never cared behind your smile

Now don't open your mouth
Or say sorry and try to make it OK
Because you are not a friend anymore
Just a stranger outside my door

And don't think I am strong
Don't think I don't care
Though I act like you are nothing
I dont think I can make it all alone

But still, I want to be hurt no more
I can't take your pretence with a shrug anymore
I'm broken enough; I just thought you'd care
Now I know that's just so dumb
So before I lose it all and start to cry
Please leave me all alone
And drop your pretence and your fake smile,
Go away from where I stand,
Leave me alone as I am
