You're Such a Hypocrite

I hate coming home everyday, every night
It doesn't feel the same
I feel like I'm in the same old routine
Stuck in the same old routine
And I'm sick of it
I don't know how I've been able to handle it for years and years and years
Since I was a kid
It's all I've ever been used to
I don't know what to do anymore
I've never been the same
She finally told me what my feelings really are
Now I have to deal with this shit
I'm so sick of it

You worry about him
But not about me
And get snippy with me
You say you care but you don't act like it
You care for him, you say you care about me, but not in the way it should be expressed.
You say a lot of things that you think you mean, that you really don't
It isn't fair
You say a lot of things you don't really mean
Do you ever seem to think how anything you say and act can affect others around you?
Oh wait I know you don't, because that's what I every day
You worry about him, but not with me
What does that tell you?
You think he might be getting sick and you think I overdo it
But you do the same thing, you're such a hypocrite

Why do you have to act the way you do? And not see other people around have issues too
You don't think that because all you do is think about you
And not me
But mainly him
I may look like you, but I don't want to be like you
I may have looked up to you as a kid, any kid looks up to their parents
But not ending up realising the way the act when comes to being selfish and selfless
I'm tired of hearing you pretending to care when you really don't
You act the way you do and I don't know what to do about myself no more
All because of you
The only thanks I'll never say
Cause I know I'm nothing like you

Why should I ever let your words get to me
Even when I try stand up and speak up for myself I get snipped at by you
Or even yelled at
Why should I be treated this way
I'm sick of it
Your more concerned of him and I myself
So why should I care?
