Inspired by Hannah

lyrics

You have the great gift of adorability
And you must protect it with all of your might
You have a great charge of responsibility
Please accept nothing in return but full price

Don’t let them mistreat you like a god damned bicycle
Remember you’re not their fuckin’ slave
You’re neither their shrink or spiritual counselor
And it’s not your job to make them behave

Remember you’re not their god damned therapist
Remember you’re not their god damned mom
But you are an equal and you should be treated so
You don’t need to save them or keep them from harm

You are so damn, cute, smart, friggin adorable
You deserve a cute smart adorable return
You’ve gone through shitty guy / girl fuckin’ relationships
It’s time that you shine now without getting burned

You deserve love, so much adoration
Support, respect, fun and room to grow
You deserve guidance—some time for vacation
Give yourself the opportunity to show

The world what you’re made of--unencumbered
Free from those kids who just wanna play games
You are the one and only can save yourself
So leave the rest of us to do the same
