You Dont Know

People keep on telling me
what i should do
tell me i am brave
for what i have been through

They give me advice
but its just empty words to me
how can they act
like they understand
they don't see

They haven't experienced
what i feel each day
experienced the pain
of having your soul taken away

They all say they know
what its like, what i feel
but i know its all lies
and nothing is real

Next come the doctors
they say take these pills
it will take away your pain
and the desire to kill

But i don't want to
deny my self hate
i want to die
i know its my fate

They tell me
its for my own good
to smile and shut my mouth
take these pills like i should

They will make me happy
thats what there for
but i wont be myself
anymore

I wish everyone
would just back away
I'm sick of the pressure
they give everyday

Just let me be
who i am
even if that means
you don't give a damn

I'm used to being alone
and i think thats how ill stay
at least if I'm alone
i don't have 2 pretend each day
