Don't Tell Me
Don't tell me you think like this
'Cause I don't want to come to believe it
You outside shining smile
Plastic
And I want you to live with me
By my side
But I can't bear to see the painful tears of your shame
Shame of what?
I wouldn't know.
'Cause you're perfect
In every way
You're so unique
'Cause your you.
There's only one.
I don't wanna live to the moment I see the scars
That were man-made
From the pain
I'm here for you
I'll hold you
'Til your shelter isn't needed
I'll let you shine
I was there with you through it all
When you hated me, and threw me out
I held you close
And told you, "Hush."
But that attempt
Scared me
Don't tell me
Don't tell me you did that
But, I'm here for you
But you refused
To hold my hand
To believe in our trust
Don't tell me you attempted
To leave us
To leave your life
Don't tell me
I'll put my fingers in my ears and sing
Just don't
I don't wanna come to deathly conclusions
Don't tell me
You let go of my grip
Don't tell me your tears were red
Just, stop.
Don't tell me
'Cause I don't wanna know
I'll be here,
But I don't wanna know
About the pain you caused yourself
I don't wanna know
Don't tell me
Bring tears to my eyes
And a break to my heart from the suffering of you
Just don't tell me
Don't tell me
