Everybody Cares

I try not to care what they say
They can't bring me down
Don't you think I'm an idiot?
I try not to care, but I do care
To say I'm thankful I have to be who I'm not?
Do you think I will?
So even if you try to try hard to bring me down
It'll be useless 'cause I know who I am and I am what I am

It's clear now
They're so depressed then they think we have to be too
I just try my hardest not to let it affect me
I know it's hard to try not to let it affect you
But it hurts to be heartbroken and still smile

Does everybody care when you're a need anyone?
Does everybody care when there's something wrong with themselves?
Have you ever lost your shine getting under their skin?
Does everybody care when you're down or tired?
Has anybody ever held you close or given you the support you needing?
So don't you gotta care if ain't nobody cares

I wanna see you shine, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna see you not care what they think, oh-oh-oh
Not everybody cares what they say, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

When you were hurt by them did you cry in your room alone?
When you were breaking up did they hold your hand?
When you made a mistake did they call you to talk or put you down?
Have you ever lied and automatically said
I don't care anymore, even though you do?

It's clear now
They're so down then they think we have to be too
I just try my hardest not to let it get to me
I know it's hard trying not to let it get to me
But it hurts to be heartbroken and still smile

Does everybody care when you're a need anyone?
Does everybody care when there's something wrong with themselves?
Have you ever lost your shine getting under their skin?
Does everybody care when you're down or tired?

I wanna see you shine, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna see you not care what they think, oh-oh-oh
Not everybody cares what they say, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

You can be who you are
No matter what they say
You can shine your own way
You can be who you are
No matter what they say
You can shine your own way
