“Don’t Know Me”

[Intro] Yeah… I saw you… You didn’t move [Verse 1] You were standing by the doorway Like you almost walked away Looked at me then looked through me Like you didn’t know my face You got taller, I can see it Same eyes, just colder now Say my name inside your head But you won’t let it out [Pre-Chorus] And I know why Yeah I know why You freeze up every time [Chorus] You don’t know me That’s what they told you I can see it in your eyes Like I’m someone you’re supposed to Run from slowly Like I broke you But I’ve been right here the whole time And you don’t even know me [Verse 2] They built walls I couldn’t get through Every word was turned around Took my voice and gave you silence Turned the truth into a sound Court dates, cold stares Paper cuts that never heal You grew up inside a story That was never even real [Pre-Chorus] And I know why Yeah I know why You won’t cross that line [Chorus] You don’t know me That’s what they told you I can see it in your eyes Like I’m someone you’re supposed to Run from slowly Like I broke you But I’ve been right here the whole time And you don’t even know me [Bridge] I’m still your blood Even if you don’t say it I hear your silence Yeah I feel the weight of it If you ever question What they made you believe Just look a little closer You’ll find me underneath [Final Chorus] You don’t know me But you feel it Something pulling underneath You don’t wanna believe it You don’t know me But I see it You were gonna say hello But you couldn’t reach it You don’t know me… [Outro] I saw you standing there… You were right there… And you don’t know me
