you dont know me


i struggle everyday to make it its so much pain in my heart til i just can shake it i smile when im hurt but i just cant fake it you may think you know me but you dont i hold grief on my shoulders like a camels back i hold pain like heavy rocks carried in a sack my heart is empy of love even though i hurt, im as harmless as a dove you dont know me letting my word pour out like a fountain i stand over my demons like a mountain you dont know me im lost like walking though the woods in everything looks the same im out here tryna make it, not looking for fame its like playing baseball and everybody playing the same game so me, i do my on thang this is the real world im a real girl hurt is a word but pain is something else i might as well self-descruct like everybody else i see other people's pain, not just my self look in my eyes you dont know me watch me cry you dont know me i dont so tell me who do i suppose to be
