Don't Tell Me

take my heart and ignore it
pretend i don't exist anymore
but need me only when you
want to
tell me all your pain
but don't listen to me
brush me off!
tell me you're sorry
tell me all the reasons you are not here
tell me it doesn't matter
say you're doing it for us
realize you're doing this for you
only you
i am not in your hands anymore
please! don't tell me you're sorry
when i cry
for you don't know
the meaning of the words
