Talk about me as if you know me
You don't know my story
you never will...
still
you talk
&
I walk, because I don't care
It's silly
really
that you're small
to keep your talking
ignorant words
verbal swords
I'll keep walking, 'cause I'm too TALL
to listen
to the really
silly
words you have to say

i like how you had said "you dont know my story, you never will..." that was a really good way to put it.
