We're brought into the world being told what to do
We're taught how to dress appropriately, talk appropriately
How to walk and interact
Don't yell
We're told not to talk to strangers
Never cry
And don't get in the car with the strange old man
What happens when you're faced with the inevitable?
The stuff you haven't been told how to deal with?
Remember, don't yell
Your mum leaves you
Don't cry
Your father emotionally abuses you
Don't yell
Your best friend dies
Don't cry
It's just the inevitable
You're just a teen
You don't understand
It happens to everyone
You'll be taken out of the world by being told what to do
