you stare at me with bitter eyes, resenting me for privilege
You've never tasted my tears, say i never shed them
You say I know nothing of pain
You say I know nothing of desire
You say I know nothing of heartache
You don't understand at all
Try tearing your own skin because this pain is better than the other one
Try coming home each day, afraid of what you'll find
Try seeing that lump in the bed, the lump that used to be your mom
Try knowing one false step will shatter your fragile world
Try making that step.
You say I know nothing of pain, but I do
You say I know nothing of desire, but I do
You say I know nothing of heartache, but I do
You don't understand at all, but I do.
My tears fall, but before they hit the floor I've swept them up
My heart breaks, but I throw away the pieces
No need for a heart anymore.
Not when my life's so ruined
She knows what's wrong, but doesn't care
Doesn't care about anything anymore- not me, not herself
Don't tell me that my life's perfect
Don't tell me I'm so lucky
Don't tell me that I've got no problems
Don't tell anyone what's wrong
