When I'd cross my arms and hope to cry if caught smoking,
You weren't sleeping
We never said a thing
And I tried to leap from your front seat on the freeway,
But you held me,
You said now what a waste
Your mark was cut in me
No they're not like us
We bled in empathy
No they're not like us
And oh when the world don't care for you
I do
They were quick to say you're overweight and lonesome,
And you believed them, you said what girl could love
And they broke your arm in the schoolyard on the concrete,
I was watching, we never said a thing

They never felt the sting
No they're not like us
We fell for everything
No they're not like us
And oh when the world the world don't care for you
