All that I did was walk over
Start off by shaking your hands
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight
Oh, yeah, yeah
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you
[Chorus]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away
No, I just don't understand why
You won't talk to me
It's hurts that I'm so unwanted for nothing
Don't talk words against me
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you
[Chorus]
Make me go away
I tried to belong
It didn't seem wrong
My head aches
Its been so long
I'll write this song
If that's what it take
[Chorus: x2]
Make me go away
Make me go away
Start off by shaking your hands
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight
Oh, yeah, yeah
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you
[Chorus]
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away
No, I just don't understand why
You won't talk to me
It's hurts that I'm so unwanted for nothing
Don't talk words against me
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you
[Chorus]
Make me go away
I tried to belong
It didn't seem wrong
My head aches
Its been so long
I'll write this song
If that's what it take
[Chorus: x2]
Make me go away
Make me go away

Guy: When you meet a guy, and he is only "Dating" you to have someone to say you have someone, he may ignore you when your not in public or whatever. Make sense? He doesn't care abut you, or pay attention, or take the time to get to know you "You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
Business: When you want a ob or in a singer's case a record deal, they may put you down even though they don't really know who you are. "All they did was walk over
Start off by shaking your hands
That's how it went
I had a smile on my face and I sat up straight"
Clique: When you want to popular or whtever, the clique may not want you to popular cause you might not have the "qualities" or "perfect features". Or you are a former pop chick and no ordinary girl wants to hand with you cause they think you think you're all that. "You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me"

With her friends, it could be that they're shutting her out and not inviting her to go places with them, and they ignore her and she has no idea why.
With her boyfriend, it could be that he's stopped calling and she feels like he doesn't want to date her anymore. In both of these situations, she's saying that her friends and her boyfriend don't really know her at all and they have no right to ignore her like they are.
I don't know if anyone has said it yet, but um actually she doesn't write her own songs. I think she writes the LYRICS, but has musicians write the music. If you notice, all of the songs credit other people, not just her.
Her music is not punk. It is indeed pop. She may dress "punk", but her music doesn't reflect it much.
I do like some of her songs, but I don't call myself a fan, and I don't have much respect for her. She doesn't really sing well live either, so you know they have to warp her voice to make it sound better.
I don't really think she's that talented, and she's pretty much like every other pop artist out there - picked up by a major label and then marketed to make money. I could keep going, but god forbid a bunch of 12 year old ToTaLee HaRDxCoRe PuNXxX attack me on the internet. I just thought I'd voice my opinion. Bye now.
