Because Somebody Cared

They say this
They say that
They smile in my face
Then stab me in the back
They show they don’t care
So I stand alone
But now I have a shoulder
Because somebody cared.
They look down on me
I’m not good enough
They say it’s not my best
Well I’m tired of this stuff
It’s too bad that to you
I’m useless, but now I have a shoulder 
Because somebody cared.
