I'm holding these tears behind my eyes <br />And I can't sleep at all <br />I don't know what to do I'm confused <br />I've been up all night restless as can be <br />I look at life's past and these scars on my arms <br />They tell a story that I can't explain <br /> <br />Here I am hoping I can stop the pain <br />Even though I know I can't <br />And I've lost my way home <br />I'm stuck out in the middle of nowhere <br />I've tried so hard to find my way home <br />But I'm so lost I don't know right from left <br /> <br />Everyone tells me they understand this pain <br />But they don't know the kind of pain I'm feeling <br />They will never know cause they don't want to listen <br />Everybody knows who I am but they don't see behind these eyes <br />Behind the tears that I cry at night <br />They don't know what these scars represent <br /> <br />I know I am alone <br />I have me, myself, and I <br />I am alone in finding my way back home <br />I am alone fighting this pain <br />Fighting these tears <br />And fighting to cut <br />You don't really know me <br />You don't live in me <br />You don't see inside me <br />So how can you say you understand <br />When you don't even know the pain I'm feeling<br /><br />ESPN CHICK<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-am-alone-you-don-t-understand/
