Don't look at me and ask me if I understand,
I'm the one on the other side of the table,
I'm the one who hears every word you say,
I'm the one who sees the hatred in your eyes,
I'm the one who sheds all these tears.
Don't you dare look at me and ask me if I understand,
I know you better than I know myself,
I've known you would fail me all along.
I keep picking myself back up and giving you another chance,
Don't look at me and ask me if I understand.
I'm the one who you always put down,
I'm the one who always gets to face your anger,
I'm the one who always ends up broken.
Don't look at me and ask me if I understand.
