You Don't CareA Poem by SarahthirkI wrote this after I realized I was never going to get a friend back
You Don't Care
Verse: My mind was in tangles just trying to keep the flame from burning out My muscles were weak, sore and shaking All faith I had was long gone and broken But you couldn't be bothered to give me the time of day Seems that my constant courtesy wasn't enough How could you possibly have wanted more? But now I see, that no matter how much you meant to me You'll always be the one who slammed the door Pre-chorus: So I'll just keep breathing, just keep pretending That maybe you'll come around and give me a fairytale ending, but Chorus: The rain has passed, and now I can see That I wasn't worth the effort, and I never will be And now I'm driving myself crazy to figure out what I could've done wrong Why did you make me fall and cry, why did I let myself play along? Two years later, and you ain't here I can see that you don't care, oh no Verse: You could see right through my tear filled eyes But I couldn't see through your facade You and your stupid games left me down and out I guess your high comes from leaving me in a fog Pre-chorus: So I'll just keep smiling when I want to to cry a thousand tears One for every scar you gave through all these painful years Chorus: The rain has passed, and now I can see That I wasn't worth the effort, and I never will be And now I'm driving myself crazy to figure out what I could've done wrong Why did you make me fall and cry, why did I let myself play along? Two years later, and you ain't here I can see that you don't care, oh no Bridge: All I ever wanted was for you to make me smile Darling, i didn't ask you to run a hundred miles I've been chasing your shadow, thirsty for love But now you're no longer a part of me Chorus: The rain has passed, and now I can see That I wasn't worth the effort, and I never will be And now I'm driving myself crazy to figure out what I could've done wrong Why did you make me fall and cry, why did I let myself play along? Two years later, and you ain't here I can see that you don't care, oh no No you dont care, no. © 2013 Sarahthirk |
