You Don't Know Me

You think you know me

Got me figured out

Your casting shadows

Casting doubt

You think you know me

You think I care

You should spend some time sometime with the person in the mirror

I'm a fist, I'm afraid, I'm a link in the chain

I'm the worst of the best, but I'm in this race

You don't know me

I'm a knife, I'm a rope, I'm a bitter pill

I'm a tooth on the cog that you built to spill

You don't know me

I'm not defined by what you think I am

I won't fall into your predetermined file

All like diamonds without the shine

If you never take the time you never know what you won't find

I'm a crow, I'm the most with the least to gain

I'm a fading Mona Lisa in a plywood frame

You don't know me

I'm a ring on a tree in a life that fell

What I did I done good and what I done I did well

You don't know me

Hate is a river flowing with money and greed

Drawing borders

Lines on a map we don't need

I'm a wall, I'm a fence, I'm a dotted line

I'm the land you kill for in the name of your kind

You don't know me

I'm a storm, I'm a sign, I'm a bleeding heart

I'm the time that got away

It's already gone

You don't know me
