Apathy


 

I don’t really care anymore

I wanna get out of this place

Run off into space

If you haven’t noticed,

This world is failing 

If you can’t tell

I really don’t give a damn anymore

 

I’ve given up on people

Given up on fate

Lost all hope and faith

I’m not walking on water

But I’m running on faith

I really don’t give a damn anymore

 

I don’t really care anymore

I don’t want to settle the score

I just wanna lie upon the floor

Knock on Heaven’s door

Because I really don’t give a damn anymore

 

I wake up every day

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

I’m no longer winning

Not up to the task

Is it over at last?
