Why Should I Care
Why should I care
Why should I care,
Then live a lie and dare.
For each way I look,
My life turns to a book.
Sad desire's shamed pain,
Of a past situation I'd never regain.
Lies of loves words and deceit,
And memories past covered under sheets.
My life has turned to nothing but No,
When will I have a chance to go,
Where I want in the land of free,
Living my life as I want to be.
So now you tell me if I care,
For things are still a lie when I bare.
Still my feelings are of truth and love,
For I know that he hears me from high above.
