You Don’t by Melodie Yvonne
You keep sayin’ it means somethin’, but I know that it don’t
‘Cause you just still don’t think of me unless it’s that you won’t
And I know that I’m stupid clingin’ on to any hope
‘Cause a man’ll do it if he wants and I know that you don’t
I ain’t asked for nothin’ but you keep sayin’ what you won’t give
It’s just I saw you dyin’ and I was tryin’ to help you live
But it won’t make you give a damn no matter what I did
It’s like road rage in a traffic jam, I’m never gonna win
And now there’s all these words I don’t know how to say out loud
And I don’t think you’d hear ‘em ‘cause you’re spinnin’ round and round
I wanna pull you up, but you dig in and pull me down
‘Cause you’re kinda sayin’ everything by not makin’ a sound
You keep sayin’ it means the world but I know that it don’t
‘Cause you just still don’t think of me unless it’s that you won’t
And I know I’m a fool for clingin’ on to any hope
‘Cause a man’ll do it if he wants and I know that you don’t
So what else can I do but sit here in it all again
I didn’t mean to somersault, love, I just meant to bend
I say you made a mess of me, but you just made a friend
But I woulda done it anyway if I’d known how it would end
So, I just sit here missin’ you while you drift off in space
I just sit here all alone and prayin’ for some grace
‘Cause I sure never wanted to sit here and miss your face
But those breadcrumbs of your love made me want more than just a taste
You keep sayin’ it means somethin’, but I know that I don’t
‘Cause you just still don’t think of me unless it’s that you won’t
And I know I’m a fool for clingin’ on to foolish hope
‘Cause a man’ll do it if he wants and I know that you don’t
Yeah a man’ll do it if he wants and I know that you don’t
