lyrics

It’s moving in like a rogue wave now / coming faster than your old face / haunted in new ways, but the look is still the same / so I get it off like a prop plane / and steal the coins back from the arcade / it’s stolen from you before, so I guess that it’s okay / I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care but I do / I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care but for you / loosen the ribbon around the map / tied to a bow like a present / roll it out on the tabletop and smooth the creases with your hands / ‘cause the truth remains where the grass grows / bent at the waist where the wind blows / feel the rise and fall of the landscape / plan the scenic route for your conquest / I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care but I do for you / so fasten tight your lines of love / the sea forgets fair weather storms / yet churns tides on distant shores / where children carve their signatures / on ancient walls, in sacred caves / on trunks of trees we could not save / and in cement, not yet dry / and in our history, multiplied / I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care I don’t care but I do for you / yes, I do
