Why Do You Care?
And though I died before
But I won't die any more to comfort you
And distort the view
Are you afraid to cry?
Are you afraid to die for beliefs set in stone
And those thoughts that you can't condone?

Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you care?

I cut my wrists for you
My pride left far and few
I gather all these lies
The how's, the what's and why's
I feel it sinking in
It's time for sink or swim
You hold on tight with all your might

Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you care?
It's all the same
I see no change
Well let me go
Well let me know
I cry in vain
To drown the pain
I close my eyes
And I feel myself die

Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you, why do you care?

Why do you care that I've been drowning
But in the end
Why do you care?
