[Verse 1] I gave you every hour, every piece of me Stayed late in the shadows, gave you everything I carried all the pressure, wore it like a crown But every time I needed you, you never turned around You said, “We’re a family,” but family doesn’t fade When the numbers start to fall and promises get made I kept waiting for a reason, kept hoping you would see But silence says much louder than your words could ever be [Pre-Chorus] And I kept asking, “What did I do wrong?” While you were showing me all along [Chorus] When they act like they don’t care about you Believe them When their words say one thing, but their actions tell the truth Believe them Don’t keep knocking on a door That never opens anymore You gave your heart, you gave your soul But you can’t make somebody care If they don’t [Verse 2] There’s a coffee on the table, there’s a clock upon the wall A list of all the things I gave, but somehow not enough at all The meetings and the extra hours, loyalty and time I thought if I just worked harder, maybe you would change your mind But I was never just a number I was more than what I made And the person in the mirror Is the one I should have saved [Pre-Chorus] I kept waiting for the day You would finally say my name But some people only see you When you walk away [Chorus] When they act like they don’t care about you Believe them When their words say one thing, but their actions tell the truth Believe them Don’t keep knocking on a door That never opens anymore You gave your heart, you gave your soul But you can’t make somebody care If they don’t [Bridge] I’m not bitter, I’m not broken I just finally heard the truth It was never in the promises It was always what they do I know what I gave And I know what I’m worth I’m walking out the door And choosing myself first [Final Chorus] When they act like they don’t care about you Believe them When they make you feel invisible Believe them You don’t have to beg for love You don’t have to earn enough You can leave the room You can find the door When they act like they don’t care about you Believe them [Outro] Believe them… And walk away.
