DON'T you dare pretend you know what to do.
Like you know what I'm going through.
Don't pretend like things will be alright,
I know they won't, but I'll put up the fight.
Don't pretend to listen when you are turning away.
I know you aren't here, and I know you wont stay.
Don't tell me things you think I want to hear.
Theres nothing that could stop my tears.
Don't hold me when I fight you off.
I want to run, its just to tough.
STOP talking, I've heard enough.
I should be made of stronger stuff.
I should be able to hold my own.
Coping skills I full well know.
I know you mean well.
But your face has a different tell.
Like you just want this for yourself,
To take advantage of what is left.
Well NO, I won't give in.
To your dreadful sin.
No, I won't let go
Of the past you pretend to know.
So stop, don't walk any further.
I'll handle this, as I have, forever.
