Tell Me...
Tell me I was stupid to have ever loved you,
Stupid to try to make it work a second time,
Tell me it's not worth it to cry for something I never had,
To mourn my hopes that were crushed so neatly,
Tell me I need to get a better sense of myself,
To stop attaching myself to someone else to feel better,
Tell me I'm pretty, because I feel so ugly,
Stained and scarred, never loved from the start,
Tell me it's worth it, that I'm worth it, to ever try again,
That all men won't be cruel to me in the end,
Tell me sex won't always feel like a chore,
That it can be fun for me and not just them,
Tell me everything will be alright, that it will be just fine,
Tears dry, pain fades, scars heal,
Tell me a lie, make it a beautiful one,
To help me sleep tonight.
