You Know I Know
I know the tribulations you face
I know the laughter you keep inside
I know the race is too much for your pace
I know the tears you reveal and hide
I KNOW...don't remind me
I KNOW...can't you see?
You know me by now I think
Our hearts begin to sink
I know the fears you try to fight back
I know the remorse that abides by your side
I know vast grace will embrace you and get you right on track
I know the cheers you show off with your smile so wide
I KNOW...I'm the fool for thinking I'm wise
I KNOW...I've been believing in fairy tale lies
You think you know me to the extreme
Well, humility is above high self-esteem
I want you to have a good mindset
I can't stand, seeing you upset
And I gotta let go of utter regret
I bet you understand...you know , yet...
You don't know...
What I know...
I KNOW we have a tendency to be selfish
But, my wish for you is happiness, not anguish
I KNOW we will get along sooner or later...we will tread this Narrow Path together...all I say is true
But, we must meet each other's standards...be on each other's level...I promise I won't betray you
