I Just Realized I Don't Care

Feb 19, 2008 - 20:36 PM PST

I'm empty and confused.
In need of what?
A little acceptance?
I couldn't care less.
Then maybe a few friends?
What for? They'll leave in the end.
Maybe love?
No it's the last thing I need.
I break what I hold, turn warm things cold,
And cage what was freed.
Then some clarity in life.
Yes it would seem.
Since things are broken and distorted,
Like in a bad dream.
Call me jaded and perverse.
Maybe I am, as a result of my time.
To you I promise....
I'll get worse.
Don't look at me in that tone of voice.
I can't stand your pathetic sympathy
It mocks my despondent heart,
Rips and shreds my facade apart.
So leave me here to hang my head,
I'll keep my back straight and do it with pride,
Just to prove that I'm still someone who cares,
Somewhere deep inside.
