If i didnt care about you

If i didnt care about you
i would hand you the syringe
and smile and let you end it all
as you poison yourself again

if i didnt care about you
i would join you in a smoke
knowing that you die a lil each time
you take a toke

if i didnt care about you
i would take you to the store
and buy you a bunch of alcohol
to shorten your life some more

if i didnt care about you
i would feel nothing at all
as you throw your life away
each day right down the hall
