No One Cares

Once upon a time I cared

And caring now makes me scared

Caring ripped me apart

And left me at the start

And now I'm just feeling bare

Left with scars

Magnifying flaws

I tried to be normal

But I failed

Then I realized

Why am I bothering with flies

Nothing really matters

I don't need to sympathize

I gave them an option

I tried to comply

I wanted to be normal

Even if it was all lies

But they did what they do

And didn't even notice

Me building up walls

Without any creases

Sometimes I screamed and I yelled

And let out silent tears

I kept waiting for them to notice

And assuage my fears

But then I realized

Time and time again

No one cares about u

No one is you friend

Youve only got yourself

And she hates you

You've got nothing else

Just this box in this room

NF's got a mansion

And you've got a box

You're locked up in cardboard

But no one even knocks

Youve closed up all windows

And bolted the doors

Little by little

Youve built your own home

No one even noticed

And no one even cares

Whether or not

Youve stopped being there

Your blankness is spreading

Its covering all of you

There no joy or sorrow

Just the blankness in you
