they don't understand

they don't know me. they just don't know me.

and they'll never understand.

nobody will.

except God.

Have you ever felt like that? Like nobody understands what you're going through? Gah, I feel like that all the time, it seems. Nobody seems to understand what I'm thinking and feeling, you know? They just all seem to... I don't know... be all thinking the same thing. And I'm just the odd one out. And they just don't even try to understand me.

It's especially hard when they all seem to understand each other. And they just treat you like the outcast. And they don't even try to understand what you're feeling. They just say you're horrible and different and whatever. And you can't help but think that the only one who knows what you're going through is God.

Have you ever felt like that?

I have.

Sometimes you just feel like you have to escape from them, get away, sort your jumbled thoughts. I usually get that done in my room. But in my heart? I want to rush outside. Climb a tree. Or something like that. Or swing on a swing. Just something. Something that will help you sort all of those confusing thoughts out. You know what I mean?

Maybe you do. Maybe you don't. Thanks for coming along and listening, though.
