How's This Affect Me

I can't say a word
Tell you one thing
Whether important or vapid 
Alot or nothing
Because I know the  first question
With such certainty
It's all that you care about
"How's this affects me"

Will this be a bother ?
Will this take up my time?
Will this cost me money?
Someone else you can find?
Is this really a big deal?
Will I have to attend ?
You know there's a game on
Can you just bring a friend ?

So now I won't bother 
I'm just keep inside 
My sucesses my failures 
I'll no longer confide
If I'm hurting or happy
I won't let you see
So I don't have to hear
How's this affects me?
