I Don't Care (feat. Adam Gontier) (Original Version) Lyrics
I try to make it through my life
in my way there's you
I try to make it through these lies
that's all I do
just don't deny it
just don't deny it
and deal with it
yeah deal with it
you try to break me
you want to break me
bit by bit
that's just part of it
if you were dead or still alive
I don't care I don't care
and all the things you left behind
I don't care I don't care
I try to make you see my side
always try to stay in line
but your eyes see right through
that's all they do
I'm getting tired of these shit
I've got no room when it's like this
but you wanted me to
just deal with it
So, if you were dead or still alive
I don't care I don't care
and all the things you left behind
I don't care I don't care
(I never cared a bit, I never cared a bit)
(You won't be there for me; you won't be there for me)
[piano solo]
if you were dead or still alive
I don't care I don't care
and all the things you left behind
I don't care I don't care
if you were dead or still alive
I don't care ( I never cared a bit)
I don't care(I never cared a bit)
and all the things you left behind
I don't care (you won't be there for me)
I don't care at all
in my way there's you
I try to make it through these lies
that's all I do
just don't deny it
and deal with it
yeah deal with it
you try to break me
you want to break me
bit by bit
that's just part of it
I don't care I don't care
and all the things you left behind
I don't care I don't care
always try to stay in line
but your eyes see right through
that's all they do
I'm getting tired of these shit
I've got no room when it's like this
but you wanted me to
just deal with it
I don't care I don't care
and all the things you left behind
I don't care I don't care
I don't care I don't care
and all the things you left behind
I don't care I don't care
I don't care ( I never cared a bit)
I don't care(I never cared a bit)
and all the things you left behind
I don't care (you won't be there for me)
I don't care at all

To me, this song reminds me about my mother. she never appreciated me, she never cared about me. and so one day, i just left. the cops found me about 3 hours later and sent me to live with my cousins.
this is my favorite song
The narrator just gets fed up with someone, and tried so hard to earn their love & respect, and all the person did was treat them like shit right back. He gives up in frustration.
For the record, Adam Gontier is amazing..
This song i totally relate to. My ex boyfriend was constantly breaking me down, calling me names and telling me to kill myself, and blaming me for everything. After all i did for him, that he thinks I didnt, I have come to realize that i just dont care anymore.

This song to me is that the singer has inner demons he cannot shake off or has another personality that has damaged his life. (I see it that why because that is what has happened to me.) the dead or still alive part means that he/i don't care if that personality sticks around because he's/i'm doing everything in their power to fight through it, and deals with the fact that he might not be able to change, but that doesn't stop him from trying...
thats my take on it
Probably my favourite song with lyrics from Worlds Collide (my favourite being Grace). I think this song is about having your trust abused so badly by somebody that you just don't care any more, and even if you try to reason with them, they won't accept responsibility and expect you to "just deal with it"
such a good song!
I can so relate to this song.
'I try to make you see my side'
It sounds like he's trying to get someone to see from his point of view. The person treats him like shit without even knowing him for who he is on the inside. In the end he gives up and tells them he doesn't care if they're alive or dead; he's had enough of their shit. It might not be exactly what the song is about, but I see it like that because I'm having a similar problem with someone.
Amazing song. (:
hmm...so they changed the song a little for the music video...the lyrics changed a little too. that's awkward.
I guess the US album version has the revised version of this song. :/
Eh, I don't like this version, it sounds like Adam is struggling with his voice...
