You Say You Know Me

You say you know me

But how well really

You say were friends

But your friends with everyone

You talk to me

But you talk to everyone

You pass me in the halls

Always saying hi

I just wave slowly

Hoping that you'll leave

Leave behind your mean streak

Leave behind your popular clique

I don't know why you even bother to talk to me

Every time you make me laugh

I wonder what it means to you

Am I special to you

Or am I just another face

That you speak to every day

Am I your friend

Or just your substitute

Do I mean anything to you

One day I'm gonna ask you

One day I'm gonna know

When I get the courage

When I'm not discouraged

You say you know me

But how well really

I don't mean to be rude

But I really don't like you

Never have, never will

Can't you take the hint

That I don't wanna talk

I just want to block you out of my mind

Out of my life, out of my world

Banish you to somewhere

Where your words won't hurt

I'm sick of all your rumors

I'm sick of all your gossip

Why does everyone else

Think your so nice

Am I the only one who knows

Who you really are sometimes

I want to be friends

with someone honest

Not someone

Who never keeps their promises

I'd rather be on my own

Than trading secrets with you

I'd rather be all alone

Than compare who likes who

You say you know me

But how well really

You have a mean streak

That you don't let people see

But you slipped and I saw

Just for a minute,  just for a second

Now I know how you

Treat people you don't like

Now I know what you do

To those on your bad side

Now I know the nice you

Is just a mask

Now I know the kind you

Has been shattered into glass

You took down the cover

And I saw you, the real you

The one you hide, the one you keep inside

No one knows what I saw

Not even you

No one knows who you are

They don't have a clue

Just for a minute you let it out

Just for I minute I saw who you were

Even if it was just a blur

I saw....

You say you know me

But how well really

What can I do, to tell you

That I don't like what you do

What can I do to change you

Into someone kind, someone nice

Some one who I don't mind

Each day I try, but it never works

Each day I wonder

Why you stay the same

I've tried to change you

But your unchangeable

I've tried to break you

But your unbreakable

I can't change you

But you can change me

Day by day

I can't break you

But you can break me

Piece by piece

You're turning me into someone

That I don't wanna be

You're making me forget who I was

I just wanna be free

Someone please help me, someone please save me
