We are not the same

I walk miles for people
that wouldnt take one step for me
the hurt that this causes 
Is something you cant see
Everytime they call on me
I try to always be there 
but when I need someone 
they never even seem to care
the realization I had today 
Made me really sad 
I dont have as many friends 
As i thought i had 
Even though i now know
Excatly where we stand 
I will keep on giving 
Because thats just who i am
the way that you treat me 
wont affect you at all 
Because I will still try to lift you up
Even as you watch me fall
