Lyrics
I read your face, it's an all blank page

You don't care and you don't seemed fazed
The indifference of the other person is evident, and they don't appear affected by the situation.
Say something

The blank looks coming back at me

Are meant to what, get me to reach

Say something

Say anything

Be mean so I know you care

Be mean so I know you're there

I think we're done so prove me wrong

And give me something I can use to

Know why we exist
Desiring a reason or understanding for the existence of the relationship.
Our time spent's not enough to be missed
Feeling that the time spent together is insufficient or not substantial enough to be remembered.
