lyrics

Half-dressed in the afternoon. Addressing an empty room. But air’s gone out of it. So you start to shout a bit. You’ve been peaking out your blinds again. You’ve been sneaking outside again. There used to be something there. When you used to care. When you cared, oh you cared much too much. And you paid with punches to the gut, you couldn’t care less, you cared too much. You only spoke in absolutes. Would not accept any substitutes. Now you take, what you can get. But you can’t take back words you regret. You never had no sympathy for anyone who dare disagree. But few were brave enough to dare, when you used to care. Chorus. Did they spit your words back at you? All those lies were true to you. Did you assume that you’d be spared, on account of how much you cared? Are you sick of constantly being compared to when you cared? When you cared?
