The Period In Your Long Sentence

there comes a point in your life
when you simply do not care

you give love and yet you still do not care
if they give you the same love in return

they give you pain and still you do not care
you have no pain to give them you have actually

nothing at that point in your life when
pain and love too become nothing at all

equate that with that point of no return when
you do not look back not even afraid that something

may turn into salt or stone you simply do not care
because there is nothing to really care because

you are nearing the endpoint of your existence and your
mind and heart are focused on that something

that you do not know but hundred percent sure that it
is something that you cannot exchange with what passed

between the grip of your hands between the hold of your
fingers: nothing snaps, something completes itself

you are full and you long for nothing anymore
'it is there! it is there! ' that is the only

proclamation. The past fades. The present shrinks.
The world becomes a period in your long sentence.

Why Should I Care?

Back in the day
When I was younger
I wasnt afraid
Of giving my heart to you
Now and again
I get sentimental
But I know its just a phase Im going through
And every time I start to slip
I just remind myself
I need only think of it
I went through so much hell
You say ya wanna get things back
The way they used to be
Can you give me one good reason
Why should I darlin
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
Back in the day
I shoulda been wiser
But what can I say
I shoulda been onto you
But I was afraid
That youd break my heart in two
Fate would have it that you broke it anyway baby
And every time I close my eyes
I just remind myself
You told about a million lies
You put my heart through hell
And now you wanna get with me
Just for old times sake
Well I am not about to make that same mistake
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
You see a girl that you gave all your love
I see a girl you took advantage of
You see a girl that you cannot forget
I see a man that I cannot forgive
Tell me why
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care for you
Why should I care
Why should I care
Back in the day when I was young
I wasnt afraid to love
Back in the day
You were the one what was I thinking of
Back in the day
Shoulda been wiser
Shoulda been onto you
But I was afraid I make a mistake
No one knows

Reflections

Reflections of your love
Have come to wither
I thought i'd done my best to memorize
A picture fades of you and i together
I haven't come to terms
With how we said goodbye
Did you really care
Care for me at all
Did you really care
Did you care for me at all
A displaced little girl
Wept years in silence
And whispered wishes you'd materialize
She pressed on night and day
To keep on living
And tried to many ways
To keep her soul alive
Did you really care
Care enough for me
Did you really care
Did you care at all for me
If i'm not quite good enough
Or somehow undeserving of
A mother's love
You could have had the decency
To give me up
Before you gave me life
Don't you even care
Just the slightest bit for me
Cause i really need to feel you cared
Even once upon a time for me
I need to believe, in my heart of hearts, you care for me
I need to understand
Why you left me there so helplessly
Don't you even care
Care at all for me
Reflections of your love
Have come to wither
I thought i'd done my best to memorize

I Don't Care Anymore

Well you can tell ev'ryone I'm a down disgrace
So drag my name all over the place.
I don't care anymore. (I don't care)
You can tell ev'rybody 'bout the state I'm in
You won't catch me crying 'cos I just can't win.
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
I don't care what you say
I don't play the same games you play.
'Cos I've been talking to the people that you call your friends
And it seems to me there's a means to and end.
They don't care anymore. (they don't care)
And as for me I can sit here and bide my time
I got nothing to lose if I speak my mind.
I don't care anymore I don't care no more
I don't care what you say
We never played by the same rules anyway.
I won't be there anymore
Get out of my way
Let me by
I got better things to do with my time
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore I don't care anymore
Well, I don't care now what you say (I don't care what you say)
'Cos ev'ry day (everyday)
I'm feeling fine with myself (I'm feeling fine with myself)
And I don't care now what you say (I don't care what you say)
Hey I'll do alright by myself (I'll be alright by myself)
I don't care (I don't care) anymore (anymore)
I don't care (I don't care) anymore (anymore)
I don't care (I don't care) anymore (anymore)
I don't care anymore
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
What what?
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
What what?
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
What what?
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
Do you care? Hell no!
What what?
'Cos I remember all the times I tried so hard
And you laughed in my face 'cos ya held all the cards.
I don't care anymore.
And I really ain't bothered what you think of me
'Cos all I want of you is just a let me be.
I don't care anymore
Did you hear? I don't care no more
I don't care what you say
I never did believe you much anyway.
We won't be there any more
So get out of our way.
Let us by
We got better things to do with our time
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care
We don't care
We don't care (anymore)
We don't care

Simply Believe

Do not care, just do not care
Do not give even a chance to others to use you
Just be careful, never worry about a thing
Got to believe in yourself, just gather the courage
Believe, in yourself, simply do
Do not even care about what others think
As long you actually believe in yourself
Never do worry, even about a thing
Nobody will love you, if you are too kind
Since everyone will just use you and throw you away
Like you never did actually mattered
Do not give even a chance to others, believe, simply believe.

It Is All Meaningless

It is all meaningless-
We know it is all meaningless-
We know we will all die-
And whatever we do will die-

It is all meaningless
But still
We are, even when most alone, not alone
There are others who may care for us-
Others who may depend on us-

We are here now
And if we are a bit kind and caring and decent,
We must struggle
To not give in and give up-
To for the time we are here
Do our best for the others close to us-
And for the life we have been given also-
We must not simply let ourselves die-

We must not simply give in-
We must try and try again-
To do the best we can-

We must not give up
We must make life meaningful
For the time it can be-

We must live and give now with all we have
To make as good a life as possible
for ourselves
and for others we care about
and for those who may care about us.

Give Me A Chance

In time this fire will turn to ashes
The sun will fall out the sky
Still you see no urgency
To spend some time with me
Time with me
I cant believe you havent noticed
Just how long Ive been waitin for you
Ive been such a patient man
But I still dont understand
You wont
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance to show how much I care
How I care
Its hard to know just what youre thinkin
You cloak yourself in mistery
Conversations always brief
Like a sigh with no relief
You wont
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance to show how much I care
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
If you dare
You gotta give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance to show how much I care
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance

One Good Reason

Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
And Ill be there
Like a thief youve stolen
Like rain on a grave
Like a priest whos spoken
But failed to save
Now the air is empty
And the ground the same
Love has gone to be buried
Beside my name
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
And Ill be there
Why couldnt you have told me
About your liars kiss
I cant believe youd leave me
At a time like this
And the wind is howling
And its a dying dream
And my faith is silent
While my doubts scream
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
And Ill be there
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
That I should care

Give Me Some Pain

Well I've been around, I've seen the world,
I've met many women down like you,
But don't you think it's time you took control,
And taught me what you want me to do?
So baby give me what I want
Give me what I want
Give it to me all the way
Give me what I want
Give me what I want
Give it to me night and day
Give me some pain
Give me some pain
Love is a many splendoured thing,
But only on a bed of trust,
So wipe away my past with your sweet fists,
And show me the freedom of lust
And baby give me what I want
Give me what I want
Give it to me all the way
Give me what I want
Give me what I want
Give it to me night and day
Give me some pain
Darling, won't you give me some pain
Give me what I want
Give me what I want
Give it to me all the way
Give me what I want
Give me what I want
Give it to me night and day
Give me some pain
Darling, won't you give me some pain
Won't you give me some pain
Darling, won't you give me some pain

Friends Will Be Friends

Words and music by freddie mercury and john deacon
Another red letter day
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating
The other half ran away
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber
Got a pain in the chest
Doctors on strike what you need is a rest
Its not easy love but youve got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When youre in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When youre through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hands cos friends will be friends right till the
End
Now its a beautiful day
The postman delivered a letter from your lover
Only a phone call away
You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number
As a matter of fact
Youre getting used to life without him in your way
Its so easy love cos you got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When youre in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When youre through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hands cos friends will be friends right till the
End
Its so easy love cos you got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When youre in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When youre through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hands cos friends will be friends right till the
End
Friends will be friends
When youre in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When youre through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hands cos right till the end-
Friends will be friends

Care

When I see how you
Care for me ~
I become Careless and
Carefree!
For my less care is
Taken care of
By the free care you give me!

For every dropp of tear I shed
You give me a thousand reasons
To smile: -)
When you say: ‘Take Care’
I know it is not merely in words.

Your caring gestures show
Your love and warmth for me
And for such Priceless,
Precious Gifts of Holistic Care
My Heart sincerely feels ~
Thankful and Grateful to thee.

Let Me Help You

Let me help you to be happy
In return you can help me
Let me help you as a friend
I will be here for you till the end
I will go slow if thats what you need
I will wipe away your tears and I will no longer let your heart bleed
Let me take you away from all your torment and pain
Let me help you to feel the rain
Let me help you to know love is real
Let me help to not be scared to feel
Let me help you to know not everyone wants to hurt you
Let me help you know I won't let you be blue
Let me help you feel on top of the world
Let me help make your vison unblur
Let me help you out of the darkness
Let me help you no matter what the situation is
I won't let your heartbreak anymore then it has
I won't make you hurt the way everyone else has
I want to help you so much because I can't control how much I care for you
I want to make you happy cause it kills me to see you blue
I look into your eyes and the pain makes me want to cry
I feel all the times you've been betrayed and curl up inside
You don't know how much we really do have in common
You look at it as nothing
I know your pain for i've experienced it
I know your fears for i have lived them
I want to take it all away and make it better again
I want to and will wait to be more then a friend
I will get you whatever you need and want
The way I care about I can't stop
I know you see it but are afraid and push me away
Because you think I'll be the same
But I'm letting you know I'm not and I am just as afraid as you are
I know how it feels to see love and feel all the pain from before
I want to help you because we can help eachother
We can end this hurt together
Just give me a chance and I garuntee
Toghether we can be happy.

Do I Care That You Are Hurting?

Do I care that you are hurting?
Did you ever care...
Period!

You have not been the one,
Exclusively in pain!
And I am not immune to empathy one bit!
Now that you are ready to express 'your' feelings,
Those of others are not diminished.
Nor did they announce they have left them to quit!

What you are experiencing now...
Has no ending to it to finish.
You once could afford to ignore
The sorrows of others.
Do you believe,
The grief you have recently received...
Brings cheers to those in contant struggle?
And you are on their minds,
As if you occupy their thoughts...
With nothing else but you,
To take up their time?
Or that you with your sympathies are sought.
You have been much too self possessed.
Too self-righteously taught!

Very few I know are suffering from guilt!
'That' happens to be your own curse...
From a life lived in rehearsals.
Built,
And fenced to separate!
This agony you 'dished',
Is now yours to contemplate!
As you kept in practice to perfect...
Deceit and needless hate!
Baited.

Your issues have never defined my point of view!
Do I care that you are hurting?
Did you ever care...
Period!
Without deserting those who did?
And you did your best...
To disrespect them to mock,
Every feeling of theirs in jest.
To depict them as being,
Low life and negative...
Animals who were pests!

Do I care that you are hurting?
Are you aware just how long who has?
From those misdeeds done by you in the past!

I have learned from you,
To return the same concern!
And I certainly don't sit,
Wondering how 'you' feel!
My thoughts are with those who have been dismissed.
Not with someone like you who believes...
Every step you take,
Has been followed and worshipped!

Do I care that you are hurting?
I honestly did not think you could!

Honesty

Let's be brutal
Its stares you in the face
But no one seams to care

We say it
As often as we can
But no one seams to care

We open up
To say what we mean
But no one seams to care

So what's the point?
Of speaking up
If no one seams to care

But if you really mean it
And it comes straight from the heart
Then never give it up
Because at least you know you care

Decadence

You don't care about nothing
So you don't care about love
If you want me to come back
You'd better change

You'd better give up talking about money
Begin thinking of love
If you want me to come back
You'd better change

You'd better change for the better
It cost more than dollars and cents
Take it from me there's - got to be
An end to this decadence
This decadence

You don't care about people
So you don't care about pain
If you want me to come back
You'd better change

You'd better change for the better
Start using some common sense
Take it from me there's - got to be
An end to this decadence

For decadence - is fatal
It's the beginning of the end
In self-defense
I cannot recommend
This decadence

You don't care about real life
You're too distant and strange
If you want me to come back

You'd better change for the better
It may be rather intense
Stop this caprice

A Child In The Sea Of Uncertain

take care of you baby
take care of your skull

you have learnt much
you have specialisation much
you are not authentic
you are talented
not genius

take care of you baby
take care of your skin

in the field of creation
you are simply a dust
to blow away
by the thrust of time

take care baby
take care of your skill

if others give you access
if others appreciate your tune
you are someone
otherwise
no one
you are baby

sheriff or washerman
saint or sir
you are
alone

take care of you baby
take care when you are alone

E-mail My Heart

Forever...
Its been hours
Seems like days
Since you went away
And all I do is check the screen
To see if youre okay
You dont answer when I phone
Guess you wanna be left alone
So Im sending you my heart my soul
And this is what Ill say
Im sorry
Oh so sorry cant you give me one more chance
To make it all up to you
E-mail my heart
And say our love will never die (and I)
I know youre out there
And I know that you still care (I know you care)
E-mail me back and say our love will stay alive
Forever...e-mail my heart
I can see you in my mind
Coming on the line
And opening this letter
That Ive sent a hundred times
Heres a picture of us two (us two)
I look so good on you (on you)
And cant you please forgive me
For the hurt I put you through
Im sorry
Oh so sorry cant you give me one more chance
To make it all up to you
E-mail my heart
And say our love will never die (and I)
I know youre out there
And I know that you still care (I know you care)
E-mail me back and say our love will stay alive
Forever...e-mail my heart
Im sorry
Oh so sorry cant you give me one more chance
To make it all up to you
E-mail my heart
And say our love will never die (and I)
I know youre out there
And I know that you still care (I know you care)
E-mail me back and say our love will stay alive

Footsteps Like Pain

Over one hundred footsteps,
Taking over like pain
when they leave many footsteps,
Behind you they'll fade,
ever so gently
so, so, slowly

Kind of like how, when somebodys in pain,
The approach,
feels overwelming

So overwelming that,
you take so much
pride in hurt,
that you dont even realize

To give a care,
about anybody but yourself

Just like the footprints
It slowly fades
while its passing by,
you die inside

Feels like a long time when you discover
it's only been a few hours
you start to surmise

this thinking inside,
causes emotional pain

When you look back
where your footprints,
It will seem like,
it just happened
yesterday

Pain disintegrates quickly
but,
that's the point of Fading!

Footsteps
leave all kinds of imprints
some are unaltered
most effect in such,
a peculiar way

When you feel pain,
others may see it
and affect them,
badly

Or if you feel pain,
nobody may notice it,
but that pain,
is the kind that creates
slow fades
you may feel it at it's worst peak
Footprints and Pain!

Let Me Love Somebody

Why do I turn away
When someone shows they care

It's been a long time
Since I've
Had the love and care
Of someone being there

Let me love somebody
Let me show them how much I care
Don't leave me
In this loneliness and despair

Tears of my life fall
As I think of what could have been

Fears of my life
Hide away
Untill someone shows they care

Then my nightmare begins

I walk away

Am I so twisted and torn

That I should never have been born

What do I have to do
To heal this heart of stone

Let me love somebody
Let me show them how much I care
