Apathetic Way to Be - Relient K

Yeah I’m not angry, and no I’m not upset

It’s taken me awhile, but this is what I’ve learned

Emotional attachment is really not a threat

When I’m simply not concerned

The things that I take on, I soon shrug off

Cause I know no one will ever be content

With the way things are

Or with what they’ve got

So I’ve given up and now I’m just indifferent

You all laugh at me like I’m not happy

With anything, anytime, anywhere

And the half of me’s all about Apathy

And the other half just doesn’t care

I must admit all the words you spoke, I hated

Cause I don’t see just how I can be motivated

I’m left to break a sweat over a dying race

It seems our fate is something we’ve already embraced

Yeah I’m not angry, and no I’m not upset

It’s taken me awhile, but this is what I’ve learned

Emotional attachment is really not a threat

When I’m simply not concerned

Yeah, being apathetic’s a pathetic way to be

(But I don’t care)

What matters to you does not matter to me

(Cause I don’t care)

So take a wild guess it’s like I just couldn’t care less

If all the things you find impressive

Just blew up and made those messes

That you’ll frantically repair

Like it’s a life or death affair

And all the while you’re unaware

For this you really shouldn’t care

But it’s so hard to see the reality

That the end will be the end of things

And our hearts are all we’ll get to bring

So let’s go ahead and make them worth something

I’m well aware that everything

Is a far cry from all right

I’m well aware that all of us

Can at times, be too uptight

And possibly, the remedy

Is a dose of apathy

You point your finger at you

I’ll point mine right back at me
