tell somebody, tell somebody that cares
take a second to make sure
your gut is accurate and pure
cause i don't got time to waste on anyone
who thinks they see something in me
that quite possibly might be
just someone they think they saved and go

go into your corner and cry
fill those big bright beautiful eyes
tell somebody, tell someone who cares
you can tell anyone you want
who you think that i should be
do anything; don't come crying to me

so wait now
just because you threw down
half your cards to leave town
all of a sudden you're a hero?
if my tendency to screw up
people that get close to me
is the thing that makes you leave
then you should go

go into your corner and cry
fill those big bright beautiful eyes
tell somebody, tell someone who cares
you can tell anyone you want
who you think that i should be
do anything; don't come crying to me

i'm so damn, so damn tired of hearing all this
(don't bring those haunting deadly eyes to me)
its not like someone is twisting your arm to stay
don't bring those haunting deadly eyes to me
(cause i'm so tired)
its not like someone is twisting your arm to stay
(i wouldn't pull that shit on you)
(i wouldn't be that cruel to you)
its not like someone is twisting your arm to stay here
(cause i'm so tired)
the ballots have been counted
and i'm sorry, but i don't care

tell somebody who cares
don't come crying to me
go into your corner and cry
fill those haunting deadly eyes with tears
and tell somebody who cares
you can tell anybody you want
who you want me to be
do anything; don't come crying to me
