If I Didn't Care

If I didn't care I would have never come back
the easy choice would have been to stay away
ties have bonded us through out these years
it's never been as simple as " I love you dear"
If I truly didn't love you
I would not subject myself to the wringer
when you put me through it
that is when my heart is tested
but I can't walk away even if it continues to cause me pain
maybe I am crazy, allergic to sanity
I am drawn to you like a bee to a flower
I guess that's your power
it sucks me in, takes my life out of my own hands
If I didn't care I wouldn't sacrifice
my own well being to sometimes make you happy
until the next time when it's not good enough
the truth is folded but I get all the blame
the lines are drawn, but why do I always have to take the extra step?
I need to find a way to care
but still stand up for myself....
