You think you know me.

And the voices in my head.

But you don't know me.

And the battles in my head.


You think you know my struggles.

When I cry out loud sometimes.

But that's just because I couldn't hold it in.

So I had to let it go.


You think you know my voices.

The ones who make me inspired.

But you don't know the ones.

Who make me want to drown myself.


You think you know me.

And the smile on my face.

But you don't know me.

And the fakeness of my laugh.


You think you know my tears.

The ones who unleash my pain.

But you don't know the ones.

That want to drown me.


You think you know my name.

And the labels that I go by.

But you don't know the one.

Who has me on a chain.


You think you know me.

And the sparkle in my eyes.

But you don't know me.

And the darkness in the sky.


You think you know my dreams.

And the ones I thrive for.

But you don't know the ones.

Who make me stay awake.


You think you know my wishes.

And the ones in the stars.

But you don't know about the ones.

Who tell me I'm not enough.


You don't know me.

And the thoughts in my head.

Cause if you knew my pain.

You would know me.
