IF YOU KNEW ME Lyrics

I'm running away

From where i'm from

(Yeah)

No i'll never be with

No one (no one)

And i went to war and back

Opened my heart

And then got it smashed

(Yeah)

No nobody gets me

Even if they say

That they do (they do)

No i don't think i'll

Ever trust no one

Because you knew

My most weakest spots

(Knew my weakest spots)

Took me for a joy ride

Just to believe that you

Were really my friend

Turns out i was just

Lying to myself to keep

You with me forever (hm)

But you,oh (but you,oh)

No you would never

See me again (again)

Yeah

So if you knew me

(Knew me)

You would've really

Understood me (hm)

If you knew me

(Knew me)

You would have

Stayed a bit (bit)

If you knew me

Then why do i have

Do my best to show

That i'm worth it

(Worth it)

Staying up past midnight

Tryna understand the meaning

Of a good time (good time)

Will i ever figure it out?

Will i ever get the chance

To show what i'm worth

I don't know the words

To describe how i feel

So if you knew me

(If you knew me)

I needed somebody

To save me (save me)

I needed somebody

To love me (love me)

But i guess that's too

Much to ask of (hm)

I just want my life back

I just want my happy self back

(Happy self back)

But it's so hard keeping

It all together

Keeping it all under the

Weather (hm)

Keeping it all under pressure

(Yeah)

It's so hard when you

Don't have no one (no one)

And it's kinda hard

When you gotta depend

On yourself (yeah)

For so long

I've felt like this

I gotta get my mind

Right around (right around)

I gotta get my heart

Wrapped up and kept

Safe from harm (yeah)

Ah-Ah

So if you knew me

(Knew me)

You would've really

Understood me (hm)

If you knew me

(Knew me)

You would have

Stayed a bit (bit)

If you knew me

Then why do i have

Do my best to show

That i'm worth it

(Worth it)

Staying up past midnight

Tryna understand the meaning

Of a good time (good time)

Will i ever figure it out?

Will i ever get the chance

To show what i'm worth

I don't know the words

To describe how i feel

So if you knew me

(If you knew me)

I'm a growing pain

But that doesn't mean

That my life is all in vain

I may be going a little

Bit insane (bit insane)

Don't mean to offend anyone

Don't mean to sound rude

To anyone

But i, i don't mean to be

This way but i watched it

All fall down (fall down yeah)

I watched it all cave in

I watched it all fall apart

But couldn't say anything

About it (about it)

So if you knew me

(Knew me)

You would've really

Understood me (hm)

If you knew me

(Knew me)

You would have

Stayed a bit (bit)

If you knew me

Then why do i have

Do my best to show

That i'm worth it

(Worth it)

Staying up past midnight

Tryna understand the meaning

Of a good time (good time)

Will i ever figure it out?

Will i ever get the chance

To show what i'm worth

I don't know the words

To describe how i feel

So if you knew me

(If you knew me)

So if you knew me

(Knew me)
