Default You Don't Know

You Don't know what strength is
Until you've faced the ridicule
You don't know what pain is
Until they've all turned their backs
You don't know what time is
Until you've counted down the days
You don't know what love is
Until you've promised not to leave
You don't know what hurt is
Until you've slept alone each night
You don't know what hope is
Until you've cried yourself to sleep
You don't know...
