Now I know


No one knows how I feel No one knows what I want They laugh and laugh As if they don't care Why must you be cruel? Hitting me in the face And throwing me on the ground Why must I believe in you? When all you tell are lies I feel so alone In this big empty world No one to hold No one to cry to Just an empty shell Why must you be nice? When I see laughing in my face As if you were deceiving me I see the color in your eye And now i know You never cared about me You never wanted to be my friend You deceived me once again But now I know I must stand strong And let you go Release my feelings And show the world That I can stand strong And walk on my own two feet You do not own me You never did So I stand in front of you And tell you how I feel I walk away and wave good-bye No more harsh life No more lonely nights I see the clear blue sky And now I know
