Lyrics

Excuse me
But would you repeat that phrase

I could have sworn I heard you say
You don't care no more

Excuse me
But I can't believe my ears

You mean after all these years
You just don't care no more

You can't mean it
Please look at me and say
That we're really through

Oh I see it
Now you look at me that way

Suddenly I know it's true

Excuse me
I can't seem to find the door
And my feet don't find the floor
For my legs are numb and weak
And my throat 's too dry to speak
But my heart wants so to scream
For this nightmare's not a dream
You don't care no more
You don't care no more
You just don't
Care no more
