Didn't I Care?

-Dreamer; Temple

Bird do falling from the sky,
Some tracks of mud, a dead housefly:
These things are all worth more to you than I.
But didn't I care?
Wasn't I your friend?
Didn't I show you how much you were worth to me?
But what am I to you?

Things everybody knows aren't true,
A horse's rear, a worn out shoe:
These things are all more valuable to you.
But didn't I care?
Wasn't I your friend?
Didn't I show you how much you were worth to me?
But what am I to you?

Around you, I feel absolutely worthless.
I am nothing at all.
I wonder why I ever came to live.
Why don't you see
What this does to me?
Don't you have something once in a while to give?

INST

Everything I say and do,
The air I breathe, the food I chew:
These things are all worth less to me than you.
And didn't I care?
Wasn't I your friend?
Didn't I tell you how much you were worth to me?
But what am I to you?

Without you, I'd be absolutely worthless.
I'd be nothing at all.
I'd wonder how I ever came to live.
Why don't you see
What you mean to me?
Don't you have something once in a while to give?

Don't you have something
Once in a while to give?
