Everybody Wants

I'm trying to care; I don't know why
You can only do so much,
Then you break down and cry.

Give all you have; you're ready to crack
Did anyone call for me?
Can you please rub my back?

We're out of milk and there's no soap
I didn't clean my room?
The kid stomps away to mope.

The school called and a package arrived
Better forget about you,
Who cares if you have cried.

What's to eat? Did you get what I asked?
Nary a single "Thank you"
Once again, you are last.

So why do I cry, why do I care?
Is there any real point?
It just doesn't seem fair.

But everyday it's the same thing
I break down and I cry
And you get all your things.
