Alice the Little Alien - Bare Minimum

I'll strip down all my feelings
Like you'd ever give a shit
It's a notion of emotion
That you barely even fit
I'll work harder, I'll grow faster
Fixing all of your mistakes
But now I'm broken, I'm misguided
Spent a lifetime being gaslighted

While all I asked of you
Was for you to be there
All I wanted from you
Was for you to care
All I ever asked of you
Are all the things
You should just do
It was the bare minimum

And though I try to ignore the signs
You make it real hard to forget
For only so long can I ignore it
When I've seen no effort yet
All those years I wasted trying
To make you understand
There is no more point in lying
When the trust's already dead

Cause all I asked of you
Was for you to be there
All I wanted from you
Was for you to care
All I ever asked of you
Are all the things
You should just do
It was the bare minimum

I never asked for much
Never wanted to
Felt so out of touch
If I only knew
It was all a lie
I could see it through
No more to deny
I just wanted to
