[Instrumental refrain]
[Verse 1]
She turns her face to the wall, then she sees her sorrow there
Puts out her hand to touch it again and again
Fingernail marks in the morning, wallpaper silhouettes
The signs of her yesterdays can't ever be wiped away
[Chorus 1]
She thought that I would care
Thought that I'd be there, think again
[Instrumental refrain]
[Verse 2]
Your face I've seen in visions in silver rippling sky
No feelings, reactions as I pass you by
Weeks compressed to minutes, this time is her time
Let me just once, be cruel without being kind
[Chorus 2]
She thought that I would care
Thought that I'd be there, think again
She thought that I would care
Thought that I'd be there, think again, no more chains
[Instrumental breakdown]
