The Unbeliever's Song

So you say you know me You wonder why I can’t believe So you look down on me I’m left here in deceit Why don’t you walk in my shoes Before you say you know my pain Before you hate the life I choose Why don’t you glance at why I’m insane I’ve seen hunger, I’ve seen thirst Still trying to decide what’s worse While you sit in your throne of lies I’m left here to cry Why don’t you walk in my shoes Before you say you know my pain Before you hate the life I choose Why don’t you glance at why I’m insane Forgive me for not believing every word you say When you don’t even give me the time of day Maybe you should try to stop living in hypocrisy And show the love you promised me Why don’t you walk in my shoes Before you say you know my pain Before you hate the life I choose Why don’t you glance at why I’m insane
