Yes, you're taking it badly, I know, I know,
And you feel so alone
And everybody's got to tell you what you already know
It's alright, it's all wrong, it's alright

There's a riot going on, maybe i'm going under and
I didn't know that you cared
"was it love that you had? " she said
Well "something like that" and I
I didn't know that you cared
I really didn't know that you cared
I really didn't know

I see photograps strewn on the floor
Amidst your blake and your young
Are you looking for something that's already gone?

It's alright, it's all wrong, it's alright

There's a riot going on maybe i'm going under and
I didn't know that you cared, somebody said
"peace is alright, could we give it a try? ", well, I,
I didn't know that you cared

I got a letter it was asking for money, it said
Give what you can
Well I don't know what I got
And I don't know if I really want to be, so well

Yes, i'm falling apart at the seems and I,
I've been waiting for years
Take a look in my eyes, do you see any tears?

It's alright, it's all wrong, it's alright

There's a riot going on, we're lions in slumber and,
I didn't know that you cared
And if I gave you some petrol, would you make yourself useful?
Well I didn't know that you cared
I really didn't know that you cared
Didn't even know you were there no
I didn't know that you cared
