Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song a couple of years ago. I remember coming home from work feeling really angry, misunderstood and completely inadequate after a run-in with upper management. I remember thinking no matter what I did or said, I would always be an outsider and you know what???? Too bad for them...they don't know what they're missing!!!!

Lyrics
Don?t Know What You Missed
You look at me with anger.
You look at me with spite.
I look at you with sadness.
I wonder what makes you think you?re so right.
Chorus
Because you never really knew me.
I didn?t make your list.
You should?ve looked a little closer.
You don?t know what you missed, no, no
You don?t know what you missed.
You think your life is much better.
You think you?re pure of heart.
I think we?re not that different.
I know we?re not so far apart.
Repeat Chorus
I could?ve been the one to make you realize.
That life goes way beyond what you see with your eyes.
Too bad you can?t get over the limits that you see.
To you a burden, but to me opportunity.
You will always sit in judgement.
You will never understand.
I will look a little deeper.
I always will choose to offer my hand.
Repeat Chorus
