Story behind the song
I woke up one morning wanting to say "I Don't Care!" after realizing I was in a bad marriage and visualizing it as over. It quickly became a "Chick" favorite in San Diego and was also penned my "angry woman" song. The song proved to be prophetic.
Lyrics
You told me that you loved me
But you lied
Didn't know when I'm not looking I could be hypnotized
I wasn't searching for an angel
Now I just wanna go on all alone.
I can't trace back to where we began to fall apart
Where you lost the value of my soul and of my heart
Can I tell you with the last bit of breath I'll spend on you
That I no longer care who you are or what you do!
-Chorus
I don't care if you fall off the face of the earth
I don't care if you trip and fall, and you get hurt
I don't care if you never want me back or you do
I don't care if no one ever cares for you, again.
Wasn't it you that said I was your stars and moon?
Wasn't it you that said we would move on from here real soon
Guess I imagined all these trivialities
I guess it was always just about me
-Chorus
ahh...
-Chorus
