lyrics

You don’t know me, you don’t care to
You don’t know me 'cause I’m not
You don’t know me, you don’t care to
You don’t know me 'cause I’m not what you’ve heard to be true

What will it take to get this through your head?
A blanket of pictures and all the things I’ve said?
Maybe it’s reflections from your haunting past
That block the sun and hold you up to keep your peace at rest.

Maybe a drive and a song will do the trick
If I show you it all then it might make you sick
What will it take to show you all of my past
To block the sun and hold you up to keep your peace at rest?

And in my heart I always knew what to do
But when it came down to it,
It was so much harder than how I knew it

I’ll say I’m sorry for the last time
But I won’t be the person you want in this lifetime
I hope you understand that the choice is mine
But if you don’t that’s okay 'cause I’ve got peace of mind
I’m sorry for the last time
I won’t be the person you want in this lifetime
I hope you understand that the choice is mine
But if you don’t that’s okay 'cause I’ve got peace of mind

And now I know that this was all a mistake
But can I think of a way to put you in your place?
I’ll be the one to show you all of my past
To block the sun and hold you up to keep your peace at rest

And in my heart I always knew what to do
But when it came down to it,
It was so much harder
(So much harder)

I’ll say I’m sorry for the last time
But I won’t be the person you want in this lifetime
I hope you understand that the choice is mine
But if you don’t that’s okay 'cause I’ve got peace of mind
I’m sorry for the last time
I won’t be the person you want in this lifetime
I hope you understand that the choice is mine
But if you don’t that’s okay 'cause I’ve got peace of mind

Don't put me on a pedestal
I’m not one of them, I’m not one of you
And this is where my heart stands true

Don't put me on a pedestal
I’m not one of them, I’m not one of you
This is where my heart stands true
'Cause I won’t be what you want me to---

I’ll say I’m sorry for the last time
But I won’t be the person you want in this lifetime
I hope you understand that the choice is mine
But if you don’t that’s okay 'cause I’ve got peace of mind
I’m sorry for the last time
I won’t be the person you want in this lifetime
I hope you understand that the choice is mine
But if you don’t that’s okay 'cause I’ve got peace of mind
