[Intro]
You said “trust me”
You said “I’m here”
Every promise
Sounded so sincere
[Verse 1]
You were laying on my chest by the TV glow
Talking ’bout forever like you really know
Every little secret that I ever hid
You held it in your hands like a fragile gift
I was sending you my paycheck in a pay-by-pay
You was out with your friends on a Saturday
All the missed calls, turned into doubts
You were quiet in the car but too loud when you’re out
[Chorus]
Did you ever care, or was it all pretend?
Was I just a phase till you found the next thing?
You said I was the one, then you left me there
Tell me, tell me
Did you ever care?
Did you ever care, or were you just bored?
Playing with my trust like a game you scored
You held my heart up high just to drop it in the air
Tell me honestly
Did you ever care?
[Verse 2]
You were texting in the bathroom with the door half-closed
Swearing it was “nothing,” I already know
I was cooking in the kitchen, you were scrolling lies
You were scrolling through attention while I closed my eyes
All the birthdays you forgot, I still bought you gifts
All the nights I stayed up when your mood would shift
You would cry on my shoulder, I would take that hurt
But you wiped your tears, then you wiped your feet on my shirt (damn)
[Chorus]
Did you ever care, or was it all pretend?
Was I just a phase till you found the next thing?
You said I was the one, then you left me there
Tell me, tell me
Did you ever care?
Did you ever care, or were you just bored?
Playing with my trust like a game you scored
You held my heart up high just to drop it in the air
Tell me honestly
Did you ever care?
[Bridge]
Maybe I was just your favorite distraction (yeah)
Something you could use when you needed a reaction
I was writing you a future in my head
You were scrolling through your options in my bed (ooh)
Now I’m staring at the ceiling in a quiet room
All the “love you”s echo like a empty tune
If you ever really loved me, girl, I can’t tell
’Cause it looked like heaven
But it felt like hell
[Chorus]
Did you ever care, or was it all pretend?
Was I just a phase till you found the next thing?
You said I was the one, then you left me there
Tell me, tell me
Did you ever care?
Did you ever care, or were you just bored?
Playing with my trust like a game you scored
You held my heart up high just to drop it in the air
So I’m done asking you
If you ever cared
