[Intro]
~#**************#~
Uh-uh
~#**************#~
Here we go
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Center of attention once again
~#**************#~
They dont understand
~#**************#~
They dont understand, no (Uh-uh, uh-uh)
~#**************#~
Then they try to tell me who I am
~#**************#~
They dont understand
~#**************#~
They dont understand, no (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
You want a perfect picture to believe in?
~#**************#~
(Perfect picture to believe in)
~#**************#~
Then you cant be looking for me then
~#**************#~
(Cant be looking)
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I dont need to live by your rules (You dont control me)
~#**************#~
Until youve walked a mile in my shoes (You dont know me)
~#**************#~
And I know, I know, I know you dont like it
~#**************#~
You dont, you dont, you dont know where Ive been
~#**************#~
Its my life, so truth be told
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I see you thinking but theres just one thing, dear (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
You think you know, but you dont have no idea (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
Think you know me, but theres more to see, my love (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
The same arguments time and time again
~#**************#~
And you watch them all happen
~#**************#~
But they dont understand, no (Uh-uh, uh-uh)
~#**************#~
Thinking youre the reason that it ends
~#**************#~
And he wont be back again
~#**************#~
But they dont understand, no (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
You want a perfect picture to believe in?
~#**************#~
(Perfect picture to believe in)
~#**************#~
Then you cant be looking for me then
~#**************#~
(Cant be looking)
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I dont need to live by your rules (You dont control me)
~#**************#~
Until youve walked a mile in my shoes (You dont know me)
~#**************#~
And I know, I know, I know you dont like it
~#**************#~
You dont, you dont, you dont know where Ive been
~#**************#~
Its my life, so truth be told
~#**************#~
You dont know me (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
The girl you see in photographs is only a part of the one I am (Uh-uh, uh-uh)
~#**************#~
Dont judge me
~#**************#~
‘Cause thats not reality
~#**************#~
And all I can be is in love with who Im becoming (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
Think you know me, but theres more to see, my love
~#**************#~
You think you know, but you dont have no idea (Uh-uh, uh-uh)
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I dont need to live by your rules (You dont control me)
~#**************#~
Until youve walked a mile in my shoes (You dont know me)
~#**************#~
And I know, I know, I know you dont like it
~#**************#~
You dont, you dont, you dont know where Ive been
~#**************#~
Its my life, so truth be told
~#**************#~
I see you thinking, you dont know me (Uh-uh)
~#**************#~
I dont need to live by your rules (You dont control me)
~#**************#~
Until youve walked a mile in my shoes (You dont know me)
~#**************#~
And I know, I know, I know you dont like it
~#**************#~
You dont, you dont, you dont know where Ive been
~#**************#~
Its my life, so truth be told
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
I see you thinking but theres just one thing, dear (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
You think you know, but you dont have no idea (Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
Think you know me, but theres more to see, my love
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
(Uh-uh, here we go)
~#**************#~
My love
