You Don't Know Me

(Althammer/Skeen)

You make fun of me under your breath

Don't you know that i could hear you laugh

Cause I live under this overpass

When you say what kinda man

Can make a living with a tin can

Why cant you look me in the eyes

It was a late night drive down a dim lit street

When a stranger ran into me

Two tons of steel I can feel against my legs

You know there's not much difference tween me and you

Life can change in an instant, second or two

To tell you the truth I still won't wish it on you

You don't know me You don't know me

Now I'm 16 and scared to death

Didn't want to be a mom like this I just want to find a place to hide

You stand there with your protest signs

Yeah everybody's got a right to life

But did you ever stop to think about mine

It was a late night jog down a dim lit street

When a stranger snuck up on me

Nine inches of steel I can feel pressed against neck

You know there's not much difference tween me and you

Life can change in an instant a second or two

To tell you the truth I still won't wish it on you

You dont know me You dont know me

 Did you know that I was that guy underneath that bridge

And that little girl almost gave up her kid I'm the man who stretched his arms,

I died for your sins

I was wiped and beat and drug me down the street

And every friend I ever had denied me

Nine inches of steel I can still feel running through my hands

You know theres not much difference between me and you

Life can change in an instant, second or two

To tell you the truth, I still love you

You dont know me

You dont know me

Why don't you know me

You make fun of me under your breath

Don't you know i could hear you laugh
