If You Really Knew Me

If you really knew me
You’d know there's a solid wall
Meant for keeping strangers out.
I've taken many chances
And received wounds every time.
Slowly, the wall is getting thicker,
One day, it may stay like that forever.

If you really knew me
You’d know my life's so messed up
There is no way to fix it,
Believe me, I’ve tried.
I’ve just gotta learn to sow
To patch up these holes,
And maybe move on with my life.

You say you want to get to know that girl in the corner,
The one drawing back and away from the others.
There's gotta be a reason for, there's gotta be something more
to that lonely girl, sitting there, in the corner.

If you really knew me
You’d know music's my thing
Cause with its sweet melody
I get peace and harmony.
When things bring me down,
Music is surely there
To help me up, no matter where.
