Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Center of attention once again
They don't understand, they don't understand, no
Then they try to tell me who I am
They don't understand, they don't understand, no
[Verse 2]
You want a perfect picture to believe in (Perfect picture to believe in)
Then you can't be looking for me then (Can't be looking)
[Verse 3]
I don't need to live by your rules (You don't control me)
Until you've walked a mile in my shoes (You don't know me)
And I know, I know, I know you don't like it
You don't, you don't, you don't know where I've been
It's my life, so truth be told
(I see you thinking but there's just one thing, dear)
(You think you know but you don't have no idea)
(Think you know me but there's more to see, my love)
[Verse 4]
The same arguments time and time again
And you watched them all happen, but they don't understand, no
Thinkin' you're the reason that it ends
And he won't be back again, but they don't understand, no
[Verse 5]
You want a perfect picture to believe in (Perfect picture to believe in)
Then you can't be looking for me then (Can't be looking)
[Verse 6]
I don't need to live by your rules (You don't control me)
Until you've walked a mile in my shoes (You don't know me)
And I know, I know, I know you don't like it
You don't, you don't, you don't know where I've been
It's my life, so truth be told
(You don't know me)
[Verse 7]
The girl you see in photographs
Is only a part of the one I am, don't judge me
'Cause that's not reality and all I can be
Is in love with who I'm becoming
[Verse 8]
(Think you know me but there's more to see, my love)
(You think you know but you don't have no idea)
[Verse 9]
I don't need to live by your rules (You don't control me)
Until you've walked a mile in my shoes (You don't know me)
And I know, I know, I know you don't like it
You don't, you don't, you don't know where I've been
It's my life, so truth be told
(I see you thinking, you don't know me)
[Verse 10]
I don't need to live by your rules (You don't control me)
Until you've walked a mile in my shoes (You don't know me)
And I know, I know, I know you don't like it
You don't, you don't, you don't know where I've been
It's my life, so truth be told
(I see you thinking but there's just one thing, dear)
(You think you know but you don't have no idea)
(Think you know me but there's more to see, my love)
[Verse 11]
My love
