You're Not Me

You have absolutely no idea
What it's like to be me
Unless you're looking through these eyes
There's no way you can see

I know that you don't understand
It's a hard thing to explain
The methods that I use
To get through all this pain

You may not think you're judging me
But it's obvious you are
If you try to help while judging me
You won't get very far

You're telling me to do things
That I simply cannot do
It's not that I don't want to change
It's just I don't know how to

I know I'm hard to deal with
I know it oh, so well
And for that I am ashamed
It hurts you, I can tell

I'm sorry for the way I am
More sorry than you know
But the depth of all my feelings
Is something I can't show

You do not have the power
To understand all there is to me
Because the person that I am
Is someone you'll never be.
