Do You Really?
Do you really know what it's like?
To have people point and laugh.
Do you really know what it's like?
To want to hide for an eternity.
When they say they don't want to talk,
When no one wants you around,
When you no longer have a safe place.
Do you really know what it's like?
Do you really know what it's like?
To want to run forever when there's nowhere to go.
Do you really know what it's like?
To hide and still feel exposed.
Do you really know what it's like to be me?
