| Don’t tell me you can’t help it |
| You’re old enough to know the score |
| Why’d you need the love so much |
| If they fall, you hate the touch |
| What’s the problem in your soul |
| Leaves a gaping deep black hole |
| Why’d you need so much attention? |
| You hate it when I try to mention |
| How it’s something not to play with |
| Don’t pretend there’s just a little |
| Don’t tell me you can’t help it |
| You’re old enough to know the score |
| You know one day you’ll wake up sad |
| You know one day you’ll wake up sad |
| You know one day you’ll wake up sad |
| Don’t tell me you can’t help it |
| You’re old enough to know the score |
| When you can’t destroy their will |
| Keep on fighting 'til you kill |
| Call me so good call me weak |
| Do anything to hear you speak |
| Why’d you pick the easy way? |
| Never believe a thing you say |
| Have to wonder deep inside |
| What it is you try to hide |
| Don’t tell me you can’t help it |
| You’re old enough to know the score |
| You know one day you’ll wake up sad |
| You know one day you’ll wake up sad |
| So don’t tell me that you love me |
