yes, you`re taking it badly, i know, i know,
and you feel so alone
and everybody`s got to tell you what you already know
it`s alright, it`s all wrong, it`s alright

there`s a riot going on, maybe i`m going under and
i didn`t know that you cared
"was it love that you had?" she said
well "something like that" and i
i didn`t know that you cared
i really didn`t know that you cared
i really didn`t know

i see photograps strewn on the floor
amidst your blake and your young
are you looking for something that`s already gone?

it`s alright, it`s all wrong, it`s alright

there`s a riot going on maybe i`m going under and
i didn`t know that you cared, somebody said
"peace is alright, could we give it a try?", well, i,
i didn`t know that you cared

i got a letter it was asking for money, it said
give what you can
well i don`t know what i got
and i don`t know if i really want to be, so well

yes, i`m falling apart at the seems and i,
i`ve been waiting for years
take a look in my eyes, do you see any tears?

it`s alright, it`s all wrong, it`s alright

there`s a riot going on, we`re lions in slumber and,
i didn`t know that you cared
and if i gave you some petrol, would you make yourself useful?
well i didn`t know that you cared
i really didn`t know that you cared
didn`t even know you were there no
i didn`t know that you cared
