Allison Iraheta - You Don't Know Me lyrics

I'm a ghost of a girl
That you looked right past
I'm a voice you didn't wanna hear
I'm a page in a book that you read too fast
But, I'm still here
We never kept, never tried, never even asked
Maybe I didn't wanna say you shut your eyes
Told your lies then you had your laugh
And that's okay

'Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know what's real
And I'm not sorry
For who I am, for what I feel
'Cause you don't know me (You don't know me)

I got more on my mind that I've never told
I've got pain that you've never felt
I've got the scars
I can deal with it on my own
I've got stories that I'll never tell
But maybe it's just as well

'Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know what's real
And I'm not sorry
For who I am, for what I feel
You don't know me

I'm strong, I'm a mess
Altogether an emotional wreck
I can scream, I can beg you to see I'm alive
I'm awake
I can prove I'm not gonna break down now
'Cause you don't know me
You don't wanna know what's real
And I'm not sorry

'Cause you don't know me
('Cause you don't know me)
You don't wanna know what's real
And I'm not sorry (And I'm not sorry)
For who I am, for what I feel
'Cause you don't know me
('Cause you don't know me)
You don't wanna know what's real
And I'm not sorry (And I'm not sorry)
For who I am
You don't understand just how I feel
'Cause you don't know me
