I Want Them To
[Verse 1]
I just dropped like the rain
I just wished for silence
You just said you'd change
You just forgot to tell me goodbye and
I tried to be sensible but I'm not invincible
I cried everytime you went off of the line
Out in public I'd play like I was invisible
At home I prayed that I could just get by
[Chorus]
Just don't care
That's what I told myself to do
They don't care but God, I want them to
They told me I was wonderful
but then I grew up
and now I'm a fool to wonder if I'm still enough
The answer is always no
When can I just go?
Just don't care
That's what I told myself to do
They don't care but God, I want them to
God, I want them to
[Verse 2]
We're not symmetrical
We were never fitting pieces
You never believed I was equal
You thought you could just leave
And I would never know the difference
You're here but you're not
Your mind went the distance
Your body stayed and fought
[Chorus]
Just don't care
That's what I told myself to do
They don't care but God, I want them to
They told me I was wonderful
but then I grew up
and now I'm a fool to wonder if I'm still enough
The answer is always no
When can I just go?
Just don't care
That's what I told myself to do
They don't care but God, I want them to
God, I want them to
[Bridge]
Just think about me
That's what you ought to do
They don't think about me
That's all I want from you
Just consider it
That's something you can do
Consider me because they wouldn't
That's all I need from you
[Chorus]
Just don't care
That's what I told myself to do
They don't care but God, I want them to
They told me I was wonderful
but then I grew up
and now I'm a fool to wonder if I'm still enough
The answer is always no
When can I just go?
Just don't care
That's what I told myself to do
They don't care but God, I want them to
God, I want them to
[Outro]
I just dropped like the rain
I just wished for silence
