I Dont Care (Anymore)

I don't really care anymore

I wanna get out of this place

Run off in to space

This world failed

And if you haven't noticed

If you can't tell

I don't really give a damn anymore

I've given up on people

Given up on fate

Time comes too early

And dates come too late

I'm not walking on water

But I'm running on faith

The world seems to have lost her

But she's at my place

So I don't really care anymore

Do you wanna settle the score

Tax all the poor

Lie upon the floor

Knock on Heaven's door

Because I really don't give a damn anymore

So I woke up yesterday

With nothing to say

Maybe I'm to blame

The reason things are going this way

Maybe the world's spinning

A little too fast

The race is beginning

So run or be last

The sky is turning red

The grass blue

My world's gone crazy

How are you?

So I don't have a care anymore

I'm done with my chores

And giving money to the stores

And fighting those dang wars

Because frankly

I don't give a damn anymore

So you're reading all those fairy tales

About the dragons with the silver scales

And the horses with silk tails

And the angry white whales

Well it's time to wake up

To reality

I wanna break it to ya

But that's just me

Because you're too scared to see

And too ignorant to believe

That life isn't fantasy

But then again

I don't really care anymore

It burns me to the core

That you're such a filthy whore

Who hurts the weak

And steals from poor

But I guess it's just because

I don't really give a damn anymore

I don't know what to do

I can't think straight

What's false, what's true

Can't forget how to hate

So do you run from all your fears

Are too scared to fight

Can you see through your tears

Into hellish night

So listen to me honey

Life is rough

It won't just rain money

So you gotta get tough

Gotta fight for rights

And for your cause

Because when out goes the lights

Life doesn't have a pause

I don't really care anymore

I guess I was hoping for a little bit more

Because life is one hell of a bore

So tell me, love

What are you fighting for

Things are ending just like before

But this time

I don't care anymore
