If you cared
You wouldn't turn your back on me
And you would be by my side
On the count of three
If you cared
I wouldn't be a victim of betrayal
And you would always be there
To give me an appraisal
If you cared
You wouldn't have walked out
And I wouldn't be filled
With all of these mixed feelings of doubt
If you cared
You would give me unconditional love and support
But this mission
You chose so abruptly to abort
I would retort
But I just don't think
That it's worth it anymore
If you cared
You would stop and look around
And pay attention
To all that surrounds
You everyday
Instead of causing me
All of this pain and heartache
If you cared
You would take responsibility
And always give me
That certain ounce of proximity
If you cared
My life would be important to you
But I guess in your world
This is not true
I have lived without you
For most of my life
I don't need you now
As for myself I can provide
I smile as I look up
To see the beautiful sun shine
And for the Lord
My soul is divine
Never am I to cross the line
If you cared
You wouldn't lie
And you wouldn't say things
To make me cry
You make me feel like
I want to die
If you cared
My feelings would matter
You wouldn't let me fall apart
And become emotionally scattered
But I guess that I
Don't matter to you
And I shouldn't waste my time on a person
With that kind of attitude
