(album: the loss of everything - 2022)

Whisper something cold but I don't care anymore
Beat me to a pulp but I've grown used to the floor

Tomorrow brings more suffering
The cardinal sings so softly
So tired now of hoping that there's something more

Care for nothing
I can't afford to breathe another day
And I don't want to give it all away, so
Care for nothing
I can't afford to breathe another day
But anything to take the pain away now

Spring is in the air
But I can't see through the shade
Summer spreading joy
But I don't hear any saint

Tomorrow brings more suffering
The cardinal sings so softly
So tired now of hoping that there's something more

Care for nothing
I can't afford to breathe another day
And I don't want to give it all away, so
Care for nothing
I can't afford to breathe another day
But anything to take the pain away now

And I don't want to lose it all
I don't want to lose it all
Today
I can't afford to give it all
Can't afford to give it all
Away

Care for nothing
I can't afford to breathe another day
And I don't want to give it all away, so
Care for nothing
I can't afford to breathe another day
But anything to take the pain away now
