They Don't Know Me
- They don't know me....
- Naked basking in glory in my bathroom
- They don't know me, shuttered to a million pieces
- Can't pick myself up
- l cry bloody tears every night
- Fight fiery fights every time
- Swim in my sorrows
- Drowning in my emotions
- They don't know me writhing in anger
- Searching for splendor
- Am am invisible ghost
- Banging on no one's doors
- Watching as my day goes
- Swallowed by a think cloud of darkness
- People baying for my blood
- They don't know me
- With my bitterness and hunger to crush bones
- They sing 'let bygones be bygones'
- Watch me wreck them and by then it's them that are gone
- They don't know me
- And my fake colours
- Presenting a smile when am boiling inside
- Pretending to tell the truth
- When am spinning a web of lies
- They don't know me
- Me myself and the empty space in my head
- I pick this, l dropped that
- Am hovering at nothing
- They don't know me
- Why should they?
- I don't know myself either.......
