Misplaced Care
MISPLACED CARE
Misplaced feelings
Misplaced care
I should’ve known
Why would they care?
I always put my heart in line
I always give them all I am
By now I should have learned
That they never care
Like I care
I should protect my feelings better
I should not give them all I am
I am the one that end up hurting
Because they never care
Like I care
I hope someday I end up learning
To keep my feelings to myself
To hold my heart out of harm’s ways
Because they never care
Like I care
Then they’ll know just part of me
Because I’ll lock my heart away
No one can hurt what they don’t see
No one deserves this hurt anyway
