By You don’t know my pain
Don’t try to feel it too
The strings of agony are all mine
Don’t act they are tied to you too
You don’t know my happiness
Don’t try to reflect my joy
The smiles I give are solely mine
The reason doesn’t match with you
You don’t know my anger
Don’t try to see the fire in me
The irony of mind it is
Nothing personal between you and me
You don’t know my sadness
Don’t try to echo it in yours
My eyes may decipher a story unknown
Floating among the glum clouds I’ve known
You don’t know the fear I get
From things unimaginable by you
Don’t try to be afraid of the same
It’s not the same between me and you
You don’t know the hate I feel
Don’t hate the same as I do
Some reasons for the cause of hate
It may be altogether all different and new
You don’t know the way I love
Don’t try to love it as I do
The emotions of my love is deep
It isn’t the way you may want me to
You don’t know my life as I do
I live it solely and not you
Don’t try to live my life as your
You are you, I am I
They’re separate that we have to endure…
