Should Don T Get To Know Me Lyrics

If you must remember this
I'm only on the cusp of it
I don't know why I am here
I feel so out of place

If you had a single thought
That might be seen as negative
I'll bet it was honest
The subject was surely me.

Understand that I was taught
To tuck my thoughts and prayers away
I saved them for someone
And kept them from me

I haven't had the kind of life
To place upon a pedestal
Don't lock steps beside me
I surely will drag you down, down, down, down

Oh, don't get to know me
Let's all stay lonely

All you ever have to do is break a smile
To take my breath away
My defenses are nothing
When you come around

I haven't had the kind of life that leads itself
To fame or high regard
Don't lock steps beside me
I surely will drag you down
