Silence gets on my fucking nerves,
Where the hell are you and where did you go last night,
Who were you with,
Do you not care if I waited up all night to open a door that never received a knock,
Do you not care that people are family too,
Do you care if we worried about you,
Do you care if you went missing at all,
No,
And I know that you know you only call yourself "family" in convenience,
When you need us,
A place to crash out for the week when one of your friends start tripping,
Family will always open the door for you,
And will always be here,
When you quit playing emotional games with people's lives,
Live up to what you were taught and how you were raised,
And let us have true family ties.
