DON'T TELL ME This was written when I looked at a friend's profile and saw something I didn't need to see. I miss you a lot, Babycakes.. Written April 22, 2003.

Don't Tell Me

Things just seem to go my way
Things just seem to never change
I was so happy, filled with joy
But seeing her words struck me
As being pompous and haughty,
Screaming out into the night,
"Haha!
Too bad for you,
But he doesn't care anymore."
Maybe you don't, I don't know
But I'll tell you this much
And I won't lie to you
Simply because I never have
And I never ever will
But I miss you more
Than you'll ever know
Don't tell me to forget it
Don't tell me not to cry
Don't tell me that I'm worth it
Don't tell me how she is
Don't tell me why the song is there
Don't tell me anything more
But that you miss me, too
