The Lyrics

Are you aware of what
You make me feel, baby
Right now I feel invisible to you,
Like I'm not real
Didn't you feel me lock
my arms around you
Why'd you turn away
Here's what I have to say


I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided...


Why should I care
Cause you weren't there
When I was scare
I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm starting to trip
I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone


Am I just some chick
You placed beside you
To take somebody's place
When you turn around
Can you recognise my face
You used to love me
You used to hug me
But that wasn't the case
Everything wasn't ok


I was left to cry there
Waiting outside there
Grinning with a lost stare
That's when I decided...


Why should I care
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone
You, you need to listen
I'm starting to trip
I'm losing my grip
And I'm in this thing alone


Crying out loud
I'm crying out loud
Crying out loud
I'm crying out loud
Open your eyes
Open up wide


Why should I care
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone


Why should I care
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone


Why should I care
If you don't care
Then I don't care
We're not going anywhere


Why should I care
Cause you weren't there
When I was scared
I was so alone


Why should I care
If you don't care
Then I don't care
We're not going anywhere
