DON’T TELL ME YOU KNOW ALL ABOUT ME

Don’t tell me you know all about me
for the whole truth will stay hidden from you
Don’t tell me you’ve been there, too
perhaps, but what stays in me is out of view

Don’t tell me you understand my pain
for the whole truth will stay hidden from all
Don’t tell me you’ve walked the same road
perhaps, but the path keeps tripping me to fall

Don’t tell me you will help carry my load
for the whole truth will not be told completely
Don’t tell me you’ve done what I do now
perhaps, but some things are better alone to be
