Lyrics:
“I Never Cared For You”
The sun is filled with ice and gives no warmth at allAnd the sky was never blueThe stars are raindrops searching for a place to fallAnd I never cared for youI know you won’t believe these things I tell you
No, you won’t believe
Your heart has been forewarned all men will lie to you
And your mind cannot conceive
Now all depends on what I say to you
And on your doubting me
So I’ve prepared these statements far from true
Pay heed and disbelieveThe sun is filled with ice and gives no warmth at all
The sky was never blue
The stars are raindrops searching for a place to fall
And I never cared for youAnd the sun is filled with ice and gives no warmth at all
The sky was never blue
The stars are raindrops searching for a place to fall
And I never cared for youI never cared for you
I never cared for you
