You’ve been asking me questions Things I just don’t understand Pretending it feels like, checking in You’ve never done it before so why now Why do you pretend to act like you care When you really don’t At least that’s what I keep thinking Because when I tell you something You just say “okay” I say I’m feeling down And your reply is just “ok” You never checked in before Just went on about your day Now I’m saying I’m done Done choosing you over me And suddenly You seem to “care” It doesn’t feel real Your energy is still suffocating Feels like I’m being pressed down Holding me down Face squashed into the floor
