You Don't Care

I 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.
