Tell Me

Tell me I'm not useless
Tell me I'm not a burden
Tell me that you need me the way I need to be 
needed
Tell me it will be okay show me that I'll be alright
Tell me the past is past
Tell me the furniture is bright
Tell me whatever lie if you need to
Tell me to stay because I see no reason to
Tell me the doubt is all in my head
Tell me I'm worth more than I believe
Tell me I can do it show me it is worth it
