You don't get the picture, you ain't got a clue You all think you know me, this much is true Then I sit in silence, alone by myself Surrounded by strangers, going on my nerves I try to not show what I feel, they take things for granted I try not to let go, I'm standing tall for the show And I smile, and it's alright But please don't you tell me when my part is over And please don't you tell me what I have to do How could you dare to think, you know me better You ain't got a clue, 'cause you don't walk in my shoes You're working like crazy every day Nobody sees it, but that's okay You stand on your feed, you're living on a prayer But the dream of "You'll make it", somehow went astray But what I can say, is that I've found my way But what I can't take, is when you think you know me What do you know? So please don't you tell me when my part is over And please don't you tell me what I have to do How could you dare to think, you know me better I don't need your answer, nor your advice You don't live my life You don't live my life I don't need your answer, nor your advice You don't fight the demons, that I have inside So please don't you tell me when my part is over And please don't you tell me what I have to do How could you dare to think, you know me better You don't walk in my shoes 'Cause you don't know, know me at all Nobody knows, knows me at all Ain't nobody I don't need your answer, nor your advice You don't live my life Live my life
