I Have To Say It
there is something that's bothering me
something I've heard all day
"you shouldn't care what others think
about! what you do or what you say"
I can't help but care
about what people say and do
"you shouldn't care about them
if they don't care about you"
where is the humanity in that?
isn't that what family and friends are for?
to always be there for you
when you can't take it anymore?
I try to see the best in people,
but I get disappointed in the end
"so stop getting your hopes up, just don't care!" but you are wrong my friend
this can't be how it really is!
is there any hope at all?
am I really supposed to turn by back
and not help them when they fall?
I'm not wired that way
it's not how I think
I can't "not care"
when they open their mouths to speak
I can't close my mind to everything,
what people do or say
isn't that all that matters
at the end of the day?
so yes I will still call all the time
and maybe get on their nerves
because I know I love them
and that's what they deserve
I may get disappointed all the time
but that only means I care
and it means that no matter what
I'll always be there
