You Don't Know Me Lyrics - Singles - The Sweetest Condition

I can't take it when you put me down. 

You make a fool out of me 

whenever I hit the ground. 

I'm picking up every piece that I can. 

I know I've been here before 

like the back of my hand. 

You look at me like it's some kind of game, 

like I'm smaller than you, 

like I don't have a name. 

You can't tell me I'm not free, 

'cause you don't own me! You don't own me! 

You can't tell me what I need, 

'cause you don't know me. You don't know me. 

I've had enough of being pushed around. 

I'm not so weak anymore, 

since I've got what I found. 

No use twisting your words into hate; 

no more using your fists; 

no more controlling fate. 

I've grown a faith much bigger than you, 

and those things that you do... 

can't hurt me anymore! 

You can't tell me I'm not free, 

'cause you don't own me! You don't own me! 

You can't tell me what I need, 

'cause you don't know me. You don't know me. 

You can't say you don't believe 

'cause it's inside me! It's inside me! 

You can't tell me I'm afraid, 

'cause you don't know me. You don't know me 

At all. 

And now and then 

when I see your face, 

I remember the days 

you were inside my head. 

All it took was for 

me to let go 

to regain control, 

and crawl out of your bed!
