lyrics

I can,
I could say I'm sorry
but I don't think it would do me no good
I could blame it on society
or my bad childhood
I could deny
every little thing
every thing you thought was right
I could be your darkness
or
I could be your light
just tell me

How do you expect me
to care about you,
when I don't event wish you well?
How do you expect me to give a damn
when I don't even care about myself

Trust don't come cheap
It's something you gotta earn
I'm tired of putting myself
in situations where
I'm the only who gets burned
I'm tired of all the lies and deceit
so go on and take your wins
I'm gonna take me defeat
but before you go
just leave the bottle with me
and tell me

How do you expect me to care about you,
when I don't even wish you well?
How do you expect me to give a damn,
when I don't care about myself?

You don't think I know that you talk about me?
Thinking that I popped my top?
flipped my lid ?
went insane?
and I've gone a little bit crazy?
Well, come on.
Get close.
Come on and show me what you got, but
you better make it good, cus you only got
yourself one good shot.
So go on
Take my hand
I'll make your whispers come to life.
I'll to take you to that place,
where no one hears me crying

How do you expect me to care about you,
when I don't even wish you well?
How you expect me to give a damn
when I don't even care about myself?
