Generally speaking this song is about one being hurt by someone that judges a book by its cover.
This song is inspired by Avril being rejected and hurt by one boyfriend’s parents, she had this to say about the song in Rolling Stone’s interview with her:
Avril Lavigne: Little Miss Can't Be Wrong
—...
[Verse 1]
All that I did was walk over, start off by shakin' 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
(That I'm so unwanted)
[Verse 2]
No, I just don't understand why you won't talk to me
It 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]
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
Make me go away
[Bridge]
I tried to belong, it didn't seem wrong
My head aches
It's been so long, I'll write this song
If that's what it takes
[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
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
Make me go away
[Outro]
Make me go away
