I Just Cannot Care - Human Drama

Your smoky eyes they stare through me

With certainty yet disbelief

The bluest blue I’ve ever felt

Washes over this old heart

Taken back through other times

When the wish you wanted granted was

Something I held softly in my pocket

Innocence left with no goodbye

Innocence in itself a lie

I’ve called that number many times

I’ve driven on that road for miles

Every hello turns a sad goodbye

Every I love you to cry I Love you turns into crying eyes

Can’t fall in love though it’s always been in my heart

I just cannot be

The one who keeps you safe

The one who has you believe in love forever after

And I just cannot care anymore

Have I given all my love?

Has what I’ve given been not enough?

Is it something we just leave out to be stolen

One time time didn’t heal the wound

And That ghost has never left my room

Is it simply just too crowded now for another?

I just cannot be …

Just looking for a story, something «ours»

Something to hold in times of weakness

Just a prayer, a hope

A simple glimpse of a guiding light

Just looking for some truth

To battle all the lies that showed themselves

I’m one of them I have always been

But maybe I’m just looking for anything else

I’ve lived one too many bad clichés

Perhaps I’ll live another one today

Love isn’t blind, it isn’t all we need

Every day I walk I find

That these ideas are fiction

I just cannot be …
