Tell me as it is (1rst draft)*

Listen (1st draft)

I know that you don’t want to talk about it at all
That you would much rather laugh it away
I know that you don’t need to talk about it at all
If you ignore it it will go away

But you can tell me as it is
Tell it to my face
Tell me as it is
Tell it to me straight

I know you think you can do it all by yourself
That you don’t need anyone at all
I know that you don’t need anyone
That you are strongest when you are alone

But you can tell me as it is
Tell it to my face
Tell me as it is
Tell it to me straight

I know that you have a problem trusting the people around
That you believe they wont listen to a word you say
I know that you wont just lean on anyone
That they don’t understand what you say anyway

But you can tell me as it is
Tell it to my face
Tell me as it is
Tell it to me straight

But you can tell me as it is
Tell it to my face
Tell me as it is
Tell it to me straight
