About "Tell Me"

The song "Tell Me" was written in a car one night, after realizing that the truth of a certain situation was painfully obvious, but no one was speaking it.  The particular truth was that someone I loved was sick, and everyone knew it, but no one said anything.  


By the end of the car ride ( I forget where I was going), the song had turned into a song about love gone bad.  It's one person asking the other person to go ahead and break up with me already, because we both know it's coming.


You'd think there'd be enough love-gone-bad songs in this world!
