Tell Me by Ha Med

Don't tell me I'm not bothered. 

Don't tell me I'm alright.

Don't tell me that it'll all be clear. 

When you are the one that lacks sight. 

Don't tell me to be brave. 

Whilst your heart is filled with fright. 

Don't tell me to swallow the pain. 

When you haven't even taken a bite. 

Don't tell me to move on. 

I haven't given up on my fight. 

Don't tell me I'm wrong. 

Don't tell me I'm right.

Don't tell me to speak. 

Don't tell me not to write. 

Don't tell me what's black. 

Don't tell me what's white. 

Don't tell me to hold on. 

Don't pull on me too tight. 

Don't let me go. 

I don't think I'll land safely from this height. 

Don't let me take off. 

I see a burning crash at the end of this flight. 

Don't wave me around. 

I'm not your beautiful kite. 

Don't tell me I'm smart. 

I'm not feeling very bright. 

Don't tell me I'm soft. 

Don't tell me I'm a strong knight. 

Don't tell me lies. 

Reveal the truth into the light. 

Just tell me I'm human. 

And I will keep trying to learn, with all my might. 

Just tell me I'm human. 

And let me face my struggle. Face my plight.
