Someday, I Won'T Care

you always seem to kick me, 
especially when i’m down,
then wonder why i don’t have trust
or want to stick around

you hurt me very often
with the things you say
like telling me i’m all screwed up
i’m sorry, i’m this way

you tell me just shut up
in attempt to steal my voice
and leave me with no options
as if i have no choice

you never really see me
i’m a ghost just hanging here
i wonder if i died today
would you pretend you held me, dear?

you tell me that you love me
and you’ll always be right there
but still i don’t believe you
and someday, i won’t care.
