Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Well you filled up my head With so many lies. You twisted my heart 'til something snapped inside. I'd like to give it one more try But my give a damn's busted. You can crawl back home Say you were wrong, Stand out in the yard And cry all night long. Go ahead and water the lawn. My give a damn's busted. [Chorus] I really want to care, I want to feel somethin' Let me dig a little deeper... Naw... Sorry... Nothin' (2nd verse) You can say you've got issues. You can say you're a victim. It's all your parents fault, I mean, after all you didn't pick 'em Maybe somebody else's got time to listen. My give a damn's busted. Well your therapist says It was all a mistake A product of the prozac And your co-dependent ways So ... who's your enabler these days? My give a damn's busted. [Chorus] I really want to care, I want to feel somethin' Let me dig a little deeper... Naw... Still nothin It's a desperate situation, No tellin' what you'll do. If I don't forgive you, You say your life is through. Come on ... give me somethin' I can use. My give a damn's busted. [Chorus] Well, I really want to care I want to feel somethin' Let me dig a little deeper... Naw, man... Sorry Just nothin' No You've really done it this time (haha) My give a damn's busted.
