Lyrics
Why am I the only one who cares
Expressing frustration and a sense of isolation, feeling that concern is one-sided.
Opening the door to see them there
Discovering a situation upon opening the door, possibly a revelation or confrontation.
Shaken by the sight
Feeling disturbed or disturbed by what is seen.
I stayed up all night
Enduring a sleepless night, indicating emotional turmoil.
Why'd this have to be the one time I was right
Reflecting on being right about something, but the outcome is undesirable.
It's your fault I have to go back home
Attributing the need to return home to someone else's actions.
Spend another year back there alone
Expressing dissatisfaction about spending another year alone at home.
You don't get to complain
Rejecting the idea of sympathy or understanding from someone.
Or say you feel my pain
Dismissing the other person's ability to empathize.
I look back on all our time in pure disdain
Looking back on shared time with strong disapproval.
You don't care at all
Claiming the other person lacks genuine care.
I guess I'll take the fall
Accepting blame or consequences for the situation.
All along I thought I knew you well
Expressing disappointment in a previously believed understanding of the person.
Ever since that night
Referring to a specific night that continues to affect emotions.
I still don't feel right

Why has this affected me so much

Don't act like you care

I know what you did in there

I know best of all that life is never fair

I always have to hold my anger in
Constantly suppressing anger to avoid conceding defeat.
The instant I'm not mad it means you win
Associating the absence of anger with a sense of loss.
It isn't out of spite
Clarifying that actions are based on being right, not out of malice.
I do it 'cause I'm right
Stating that actions are motivated by a commitment to correctness.
The thought of you puts me in fight or flight
Expressing intense emotional reactions to thoughts of the other person.
And I'm not a fucking pilot

You don't care at all
