Do you know me
I know you don’t
Can you guess what I’m thinking
I bet you can’t
I am smiling and laughing
But I am unhappy on the inside
I tell you to make a choice
But you choose my least favourite
You want me to go out
But I’d rather be in bed
You want me to play video games
But I’d rather read a book
You want me to stop work
But I’d rather have my own self accomplishment
You can’t comprehend why my family is always in the picture
But family means everything to me
You want us to eat out
But I’d rather order take out
You want me to hang out with your friends
But I’d rather stay home and watch TV
I wish I could be what you desire
But I can’t change for you
You prefer another version of me
But I can’t be who I am not
I try to explain how I feel
But you say you don’t wanna fight me
You claim to love me
But you don’t even know me
You don’t know me
So I guess you don’t deserve me
