You Think You Know Me

You think you know me,

When you shoot daggers with your eyes,

When you spread those poisonous lies.

You think you know me,

When you laugh, snicker, and sneer,

But things look much different if you dare to come near.

You think you know me,

When you instantly categorize: weak, stupid, geek, fat, 

I used to think I was better than that.

You think you know me,

When you speculate on the spot,

Where I got these scars, and where this was bought.

You think you know me,

But you don't.

I am fighting a battle much bigger than you will ever know about,

And I'm living a story much sadder than you will ever read about.

I'm not weak,

I'm strong enough to keep it inside.

I'm not dumb, 

I'm smart enough to not let your words ruin my life.

So you should know that I'm above all your games,

And you should know that I'm not after the fame.

My life is one continuous war,

And you - you - are just one villain.

And the worst part is,

When all has been said and done,

You'll still think you know me.

But you don't. 

Because my story isn't over.

And it never will be.
