They Don't Know Me

I had to choose between me or your love
I’m afraid I can’t help my fall
But I tried my best not to get hurt
You have to accept me the way I am
You must respect me as I respect you
I won’t be mistreated by you all the time

You already know that I’m a fool to love
Oh, how foolish I am

All I ask is just a little space to live in peace
I need myself more than your ignorance
‘Cause they don’t even know who I really am
‘Cause they never know who the real person is that they judge without reason
That’s why I say they’ll never know who I am
They don’t really know me at all

I had to recover from the pains they gave me
But I can’t heal them
Somehow it was like blades that tore me apart
It was like needles piercing me at any moment
I need to escape this situation and this void

You already know that I’m a fool to love
Oh, how foolish I am

All I ask is just a little space to live in peace
I need myself more than your ignorance
‘Cause they don’t even know who I really am
‘Cause they never know who the real person is that they judge without reason
That’s why I say they’ll never know who I am
They don’t really know me at all

It’s all kind of strange to see that
The same person who loved me is now the one who brings me so much pain
It’s so strange to see that
The one I trusted the most is now the one who pierces me with the needles
But enough of water under the bridge

All I ask is just a little space to live in peace
I need myself more than your ignorance
‘Cause they don’t even know who I really am
‘Cause they never know who the real person is that they judge without reason
That’s why I say they’ll never know who I am
They don’t really know me at all
