Don't tell me not to cry,

You don't see tears here, do you?

Don't tell me it's all right,

We both know that's not true.

Don't tell me wrong is right,

You know I don't believe you.

Don't tell me not to fight,

I'm too far in: no use.

Don’t be afraid to try,

Let’s steal the sword tonight.

Don't try to tell me lies,

'Cause I can see right through you.

Don't say he's not alive,

I won't listen, I refuse.

Mum, don’t push me aside,

I can’t bear to lose you, too.
