Lyrics
Nobody Knows Me
(Mingori, Santone, Maiorano, Jackson)
Everybody thinks they know me so well
They wanna push and shape me
Like I'm some kinda modeling clay
Sometimes I can't see in front of my own face
With all of those people standin right in my way
And I never ask anybody
But they always have something to say
And I'm tired of sayin'
"Excuse me get outta my..."
Way over there is somebody else trying tell me
What it is I need
And what I want
And isn't there always somebody out there
Trying to sell me
With all that power they just love to flaunt
And nobody has the answers
To lessons that can't be taught
And I don't remember
Asking what anyone thought
Nobody knows me
Nobody really knows me
Nobody knows
Like I know
I know me
(Solo)
I try to be spiritual
Try to rise above
Try to extend my good wishes
And my love and generosity
I get the feeling
That's not what this world is made of
I see all those mine fields
Layin' out there in front of me
Well nobody has all the answers
And some of us don't have a clue
An' nobody out there
Knows me much better than I do
