Alarm goes off
I hit dismiss
Scroll my phone
Forget the list
Cold coffee
Warm in my hand
Your name pops up
I leave it on read
I don’t care
Least that’s what I say
Throw my heart
In the bottom of the tray
If it burns
I just watch it fade
I don’t care
I don’t care anyway
Friends talk loud
In a crowded room
I laugh on cue
Stare at the broom
Your sweatshirt
Still on my chair
I step around it
Like it’s not there
I don’t care
Least that’s what I say
Throw my heart
In the bottom of the tray
If it burns
I just watch it fade
I don’t care
I don’t care anyway
Truth is
When the night goes thin
Every “don’t care”cracks
And lets you in
I don’t care
Least that’s what I say
Throw my heart
In the bottom of the tray
If it burns
I just watch it fade
I don’t care
I don’t care anyway
