I've been trying hard to even it up
And hurt you the way that you hurt me
But don't you think maybe my inner peace is reason enough to let it go?
I've been drownin' in this ravine
A dangerous scene is all I need
I often feed off energy surroundin' me
And now that we somehow agree
That the outside's broken, control our thoughts
I can see the moon's reflection on still water
And although it kinda looks I could reach out and touch it
It's not really there
Just like the mirage I see of you
I smile and don't bother
'Cause it doesn't hurt this much if I pretend like I don't care
So, I don't care
♪
I've been dyin', you've been eatin' it up
Just feelin' like you have the power
But if I go out my way to get even
Must I die before I see the flowers?
Got tired of poppin' pills
Though, I often will
I'll be lost until I can get these problems killed
No way my problems will heal
And they probably will
I been out there seekin' thrills
I don't know how decent feels
Lonely nights, and sleeping pills
It's hard to get focused
Layin' in a bed of roses
But if I love white roses and love red roses
What does the color matter if they're dead roses?
I can see the moon's reflection on still water
And although it kinda looks I could reach out and touch it
It's not really there
Just like the mirage I see of you
I smile and don't bother
'Cause it doesn't hurt this much if I pretend like I don't care
Like you're not there
♪
And I don't care
Let me pretend, let me pretend
Like I don't care
(Like I don't care)
