No One Cares

If I strive to help the needy No one cares If I sacrifice my soul No one cares If I give the world my heart Everyone would rip it apart Simple wisdom I'll impart: No one cares When I try to do my best No one cares They'll reward all the rest No one cares When I try to claim my due They ignore me; this is true Yes, no matter what I do No one cares When, like Twist, I ask for more No one cares They'll patronize me or ignore, 'cause No one cares But when I make a small mistake Reprimand's a piece of cake All achievements they'll forsake, 'cause No one cares When, in pain, I feel like crying No one cares And my spirit's slowly dying No one cares When for respect I sigh And I wonder why I try "Stay the course"? Why should I? No one cares!
