If you knew me

You sit there yelling at me
Telling me I'm worthless and weak
You sit there looking at me
Telling me I'm a loser and mean

If you only knew the pain inside me
If you only knew the voices I here and the names I'm called in one week
If you only knew the rivers I cry at night that keep me off my feet
If you only knew the damage you've done to me

You sit there insulting me
Telling me I'm useless and beat
You sit there stabbing me
Telling me I lie and sneak

If you only knew the scars on my heart
If you only you knew the wars in me
If you only knew the screaming in me
If you only knew the dead man walking

You sit there scarring me
Telling me to go die this week
You sit there tearing through me
Telling me I shouldn't have come into being

If you only knew me
