Goodbye, Apathy Lyrics

I can't sleep now, no, not like I used to
I can't breathe in and out like I need to
It's breaking ice.. now, to make any movement
What's your vice? you know that mine's the illusion
And all at once (as i'm trying) I can help you out (
just to keep things right)
I'll be what you need (I kill myself to make
everything perfect for ya)
Goodbye apathy, so long apathy

So don't sit still, don't you move away from here
So goodbye apathy (as i'm trying), so long fancy free
( just to keep things right)
Goodbye apathy, (kill myself to make everything
perfect for ya)
I don't wanna be you

I don't walk right, not like I used to
There's a jump in my step as I rush to see you
I could be happy here as long as you're near to me
As long as you're close to me
Now that I'm alright (as i'm trying) I can help you
out ( just to keep things right)
I'll be what you need (I kill myself to make
everything perfect for ya)
Goodbye apathy, goodbye apathy

So don't you stop pushing me, I can take so much
So goodbye apathy (as i'm trying), so long fancy free
( just to keep things right)
Goodbye apathy, (kill myself to make everything
perfect for ya)
I don't wanna be... you...

Everybody is watching you, everybody is watching me
too ....

He's talking about love. Ever since he fell in love, he's not apathetic or nonchalaunt about life. He actually cares now, a lot, and its all thanks to loving her. He's saying goodbye to emptiness and hello to love.

i love this song!

my favorite part is the second verse, talking about how life is different with this person.. "I don't walk right, not like I used to There's a jump in my step as I rush to see you I could be happy here as long as you're near to me As long as you're close to me"

the words are beautiful.

for the most part i think this song is talking about a new love that is growing. and you're saying goodbye to the lack of feeling, and you're so willing to do/be everything for this person. ("I'll be what you need (I kill myself to make everything perfect for ya)")

I completely and totaly agree with vipeenikki.

This song is about how he is in love and now he feels again and can say goodbye to those days of not caring.

I love the line theres a jump in my step oh how I'd love for a man to sing this song to me.

I feel this is a positive love song as compared to a song about after a break up. It is beautifully refreshing.
