I Wish I Could Care For You
Wondering about the reasons for apathy.

When we first met,
I tried to find some spark,
It was only supposed to be one night,
Now I can't get you out of my sight.
I wish I felt something inside,
Then we could make something right.
Not just the dull ache,
Of wanting someone by my side at night.
Distant thunder burns through the air,
Sparks the breath of the nowhere,
Folding on top of what was not there,
Lightning lights pale emptiness.
Just the same mess I always make.
Finally I see, it was never you and me.
Finally I see, I'm just a leaf in the breeze.
Finally I see, it was never you and me.
Finally I see, I'm just a leaf in the breeze.
How the current drags me,
Abrasive sand across the bedrock.
Can't understand how to be free,
Turn away and back to sleep.
Dead batteries we don't mean to keep.
At the bottom of drawers,
Filled with useless things we don't need.
A museum of horrors,
Flexing muscles from the giants of noiselessness.
Finally I see, it was never you and me.
Finally I see, I'm just a leaf in the breeze.
Finally I see, it was never you and me.
Finally I see, I'm just a leaf in the breeze.
I wish I could care for you,
Then maybe I could learn,
Not to be so blue,
Not to burn with apathy,
In my search to be free.
