You Think You Know

You think you know, but you have no idea the pain in which my heart is filled.
You try to care but you don’t know how and I’m stuck with the words “what now”.
You say one thing but mean another and you show your complete blunder.
I try not to cry, but cry I have to, and the tears are brought upon by you.
You think you, know but you have no idea the pain in which my heart is filled.
All this hurt from 9 stupid words, all this pain because you spoke like a mallard.
You think you know, but you have no idea the pain in which my heart is filled.
Yes I’m strong, but my strength can’t fight the fact that you were wrong.
The things you said can’t be erased and a pleasant thought can’t be put in that 
place.
You think you know, but you have no idea the pain in which my heart is filled.
I wish you knew, or had some idea the pain that in my heart you filled.
You’ll never know, I’ll never tell, my feelings I strongly impel.
