Don't Tell Yourself
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't tell yourself it's okay.
Don't tell yourself it's not true.
I don't want you to hurt me,
but I want to hurt you.
Why would I wanna hurt you,
when you make me cry so?
Why would I wanna do that?
It makes you want to die so.
Oh. Oh.
Don't tell yourself it's okay.
Don't tell yourself it's so fine.
Why not what a fine day,
I'm so glad that you're mine.
Why don't you try more?
You're ringing in my ears.
I'm going to try more.
Try to buy back my tears.
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Oh. Oh.
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
Stop telling me, "It's okay."
