Don't tell me

Don't tell me who I am,
Don't tell me what to do,
Don't tell me that you understand,
You don't know what I go through,

Don't tell me when to laugh,
Don't tell me when to cry,
Don't tell me that tomorrow will be better,
Because tomorrow I will still want to die,

Don't tell me what to say,
Don't tell me how to feel,
Don't tell me that I'm just pretending,
When all of this pain is real,

Don't tell me that you love me,
Don't tell me that you care,
Don't tell me to cover my scars,
You can't deny that they are there,

Don't tell me to pretend,
Don't tell me to put it in the past,
Don't tell me it's forever,
Because nothings real and nothing lasts.
