They Didn�t Know, They Didn�t Care, They Didn�t Think
They thought I was strong
But I wasn�t
I appeared like nothing affected me
But everything did
When they needed someone to listen
I was there, only giving advice when asked
They thought I had everything
So they assumed I was content
They were way off

Sophmore year, got into a little quarrel with one
She said �get some self-esteem�
They laughed
I left the room, hating them, hating myself
My other friend found me
trying to scratch my wrist with a nail file
She told them, they laughed
They didn�t understand
Or maybe they didn�t care

Junior year, we used to be at this girl�s house all the time
I used to look at her big kitchen knives some times,
She told everyone that I like to play with knives
They laughed. It hurt. Everyone thought I was a psycho
We had a bomb threat, in a class
I told my friends from that class that I would die for them
This girl who was a semi-friend,
told me to kill myself already
After that I thought why haven�t I yet

Senior year, they didn�t need me anymore
Someone else had a car, I was left in the dust
Saturday night, only time I went out with them
They still hurt me, I was left alone
I would have to sit alone in my car
Waiting for their call
Crying and wondering why and feeling alone
These were my friends, they left me out
Cuz I didn�t drink, didn�t smoke, didn�t do drugs

They called me a bitch
But did they ever wonder why
I had a job, I had to get good grades
I had to obey my parents
And then I had to deal with them.
They said I had the perfect life
Because my parents paid my bills
But i did pay, emotionally
Everything I did was for others.

And at the end of each day, I had no one.
