Lyrics
You don’t care
You make me question everything I thought I was,
I thought I knew.
I’m drowning on the waves of you that make me feel
so abused.
And even if I could defend myself to you,
it would not change the fact that you don’t care.
And even if I gain a little self-respect,
it does not change the fact that you don’t care.
I have no power to change you past, your pain,
your sadness, your cold heart,
and it makes me feel so helpless, -
like a song without a start.
And even if I could defend myself to you,
it would not change the fact that you don’t care.
And even if I gain a little self-respect,
it does not change the fact that you don’t care.
But I won’t abandon you; I won’t put out your flame.
I’ll find a place that I can’t reach, - high on a shelf,
to store the pain.
And even if I could defend myself to you,
it would not change the fact that you don’t care.
And even if I gain a little self-respect,
it does not change the fact that you don’t care.
Don’t treat me this way anymore.
I’m here with a heart that has a door.
You know the way in, -
open the door
if you want more.
