You Don't Care for Me Enough to Cry - John Moreland

Come down from your mountain

I miss your holy shouting

These days I can’t make you make a sound

Take me to the times when

We’d look up to the skies

And climb up there and draw the thunder down

Now I’m forcing myself into

What you’ve already been through

But darling I can’t help the way I feel

And you need something stronger

A drug to kill the hunger

And ease the awful pain of living here

And I’m the kind of love it hurts to look at

And maybe we should take it as a sign

When I’m strung out on leaving

Exalting all my demons

And you don’t care for me enough to cry

I dreamt I’d take you with me

And you’d say you forgive me

And we’d live out some easy, ancient song

Now we’re out here unattended

In splendid love’s remembrance

You lost the mind to even do me wrong

And I’m the kind of love it hurts to look at

But once I was enough to make you try

Now I’m underneath the rubble

Trying not to feel the trouble

And you don’t care for me enough to cry

So here’s hoping I can change tomorrow

You wanted hard as nails cut and dry

But I beg, steal, and borrow

I’m so damn good at sorrow

And you don’t care for me enough to cry
