When You Cared Songtext
von Sorry About Dresden

Half-dressed in the afternoon
Addressing an afternoon
But the air′s gone out of it
So you start to shout a bit
You've been picking out your plans again
You′ve been sticking outside again
There used to be something there
When you used to care

When you cared
Oh, you cared much too much
And you paid with punches to the gut
You couldn't care less, you cared too much


You only spoke in absolutes
Would not accept any substitutes
Now you take what you get
Can't take back what you might regret
You never had no sympathy
For anyone who dared disagree
But you were brave enough to dare
When you used to care

When you cared
Oh, you cared much too much
And you paid with punches to the gut
You couldn′t care less, you cared too much

Didn′t speak your words back to you
All those lies were true to you
You assumed that you'd be spared
On account of just how much you cared
Are you sick of still hearing it?
Are you tired of fearing it?
Are you sick of constantly being compared

To when you
To when you
To when you
Cared?
