You Don't Know How It Feels Song Lyrics
You Don't Know How It Feels by Jim Carroll You think you're so clever and smart
You think you can power over me
Just because of your brute strength
You tease me of the way I look
The way I dress
The way I act
And how I'm such a goody-good two shoes
All you ever think about is yourself
Can you at least give me a chance?
You think I'm so weak
Just because I can't fight back
But you can be strong
Without doing the stuff you do
But you don't know how it feels
To be pushed around so easily
To judge me on what people see
They just can't bother to look inside
You don't know how it feels
To be controlled by people you don't know
To be depressed, day and night
You don't even know what I'm feeling
Yes, you can do anything you want to do
Be the bad guy, tease on random people
Get girlfriends just because they like bad boys
But you're gonna regret it in the future
Cause you don't know what you're doing
Or how you laugh at brutality towards innocence
Cause you don't know how it feels
To be pushed around so easily
To judge me on what people see
They just can't bother to look inside
You don't know how it feels
To be controlled by people you don't know
To be depressed, day and night
You don't even know what I'm feeling
I know what I'm doing
I know what's right
I know what's wrong
I know how to treat people
The way they are
Not focus on the outside
I know what to do
I can be strong
I know what's going on
I know how it feels
To be by yourself
For so long
You act like you're tough
You act like you're cool
You do the wrong stuff
All of the time
You don't even take the time
To listen to somebody
You think you're so right
You think you're never wrong
You think people who aren't physically strong
Are just weak people in life
But they can be strong
Stronger than you
On the inside, looking out
They don't judge people
Based on what they see
They can be strong minded
Even spiritually strong
But you don't even how it feels...
No you don't know how it feels
To be pushed around so easily
To judge me on what people see
They just can't bother to look inside
You don't know how it feels
To be controlled by people you don't know
To be depressed, day and night
You don't even know what I'm feeling
(You don't know) how it feels
To be pushed around so easily
To judge me on what people see
They just can't bother to look inside
You don't know how it feels
To be controlled by people you don't know
To be depressed, day and night
You don't even know what I'm feeling
You don't how it feels
To be left out
On the good things in life...
