You'll Be Sorry

You don't know me
No one does
You don't understand me
No one will
You can see me like you should
Not that it's possible
You don't love me like I wish you would
But I guess that will only happen in my wildest dreams

Knowing is seeing
Understanding is loving
Seeing is difficult
And loving is even harder

I know how you feel
I know how you act
I know why you act
The way you do

But...

I've been through more
I've seen more
I've dealt with more
And I've done more

I've done things to myself
I've done things to others
I've never meant them
But I've done them
Nonetheless

They don't understand me
Nor do you
You may not understand why
Nor will they
But I know why
And there are reasons behind your cruelty

You may not know them
They may not know them
And even I may not know them
Yet.
But I will
And believe me
When I do...

You'll be sorry
Sorry that you hurt me
Sorry that you broke me
Sorry that my life's ruined
Sorry that I've ruined my life
And sorry that you caused it
