You think you know me
I have that pretty smile on my face
Always laughing around my friends
But you don’t know me
You don’t know the times when I cry myself to sleep
You don’t know when I have a mental breakdown and need to call my friends
You don’t know how I feel, what I think when I feel like cutting again
You know my name and what I look like, but not my story,
Not my problems, not what I struggle with
You think you know me
If I’m quiet around you then you for sure don’t know me
If you think you know me I must ask you
Do you know the times where I stress over the smallest things
Do you know when I need to speak up for me and my sister
Do you know the times I look ok but hurting inside
I don’t think so
But if you do know me then you know not only my name but my story
Why I am the way I am
If you know me then you’re there for me when I need you the most
You want to call me your friend? Ok ok,
Do you know me?
If you know me, are you there for me?
Were you there for me when I was at my lowest
If not, then don’t call me your friend
Don’t say you know me
Because you know “me”
But not the real me
You know how I look on the outside
Not how I feel on the inside
You don’t know me
