[Verse 1]
Why do you never have me in your life
I am your blood
But I stood outside
Since Walt went to prison
You cut me off cold
Act like I don't count
Act like I ain't home
You called him first
You kept him close
I learned your silence
Like I learned my name
Now you look back
Like nothing changed
But I felt that door
Close in my face
[Pre-Chorus]
So don't come now
With soft little words
Don't ask me to fold
Like I never hurt
I was here all along
You let me fade
Now you want family
That you never made
[Chorus]
Why care now
Why care now
You let me bleed alone
Why care now
Why care now
When I needed your hand at home
Family?
Say that slow
Say it when you know the cost
Why care now
Why care now
After all I lost
[Verse 2]
I kept your number
Just in case
I saw your name
And looked away
Too many years
Too many nights
Of biting my tongue
And swallowing fire
You fed his side
You fed that room
I got leftovers
And a quiet mood
Now you want answers
Now you want peace
But every old scar
Still talks to me
[Pre-Chorus]
So don't come now
With those empty eyes
I heard that excuse
A hundred times
I was your child
I was your daughter I was your cousin I was your granddaughter
You chose your favorites
And called it love
[Chorus]
Why care now
Why care now
You let me bleed alone
Why care now
Why care now
When I needed your hand at home
Family?
Say that slow
Say it when you know the cost
Why care now
Why care now
After all I lost
[Bridge]
Maybe one day
I'll answer the phone
Maybe one day
I'll stop feeling ghosted
But right now
I need the truth
Not a patched-up story
From the same old you
[Final Chorus]
Why care now
Why care now
You let me bleed alone
Why care now
Why care now
When I needed your hand at home
Family?
Say that slow
Say it when you know the cost
Why care now
Why care now
After all I lost
