You Don't Know Me

You don't know me like you think you do, no
Yeah, and I don't fit the mold you wanna force me into
That's for sure
You can catch me in the dark of night getting my whole life
Underneath the sapphire sky
Your perception of me is so untrue
What can I do?

And now I found myself at the edge of my sanity
Lyin', I hold myself back, look at it the other way
Please, don't come 'round here talkin' 'bout what's best for me
When I told you just the other day, just the other day, baby

You don't know me like you think you do

Head hung low just like you owe me an apology
Something tells me you ain't gonna say no
How can you? Tonight you really won the lottery
Afterparty with the lights turned low
Everybody wants to live by the philosophy
This is something, this is something
And you can blame it on society
But grew up in a generation of variety

And now I found myself at the edge of my sanity
Lyin', I hold myself back, look at it the other way
Please, don't come 'round here talkin' 'bout what's best for me
When I told you just the other day, just the other day

You don't know me like you think you do
