You Don't Know Me

Contributed by lilch4ever on Friday, 9th July 2004 @ 09:21:13 PM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics

Verse 1

When I look into your eyes
I am smiling inside
How I wonder
How things could be
If I only didn't pull away
I'm so scared inside
All I do is run away and hide

Chorus 1

Haven't you seen my scars?
They hadn't yet withered away
I wish to know you better
But things are just too cloudy
And many other things shadowy

Verse 2

You make me nervous inside
And I always have butterflies
I really like you
But afraid to show you
Who I really am
Afraid that you
Won't want me

Chorus 2

You say that
I'm too guarded
You say that
I'm not open minded enough
You say that
I'm too guarded
You say that
I'm not open minded enough

Verse 3

You don't seem to wanna know
Why my walls are so high
You just standby
And wonder why
I try to explain
But you still don't understand
And you still wonder
Why there's things I haven't said
Who could be that blind?

Chorus 3

Because you only see
The body that lies before thee
Because you don't understand
A word I say
I'm too hardcore
Is what you say

Verse 4

I try to reach out
But something reels me back in
You want me but not what's inside
My body your after
I see so clear
Why can't you take the time
To get to know me?
I'm sure you'd learn to love me

Chorus 4

And you wonder
How I feel
But no matter what
You only see my body
Not who I am
Because when I reached out
You just scattered about
Because when I reached out
You just scattered about...
