The Eurythmic King of Nowhere - I Care

I care about what you think of me, lover
Because you're more valuable than anything I've ever possessed
And I don't possess you
Like water running through my fingers
Soon you'll see I'm not the hero I am in my dreams

I care about what you think of me, friend
Because it's not often I have someone I want to tell all this
And I haven't found a way to tell you
Like a lump is in my throat
You might hear how I'm more broken than I seem

I care about what you think of me, acquaintance
Because every perception of me can act as a drug or knife
And I can't control you
Like a blood hound
You might sniff out how I am not as nice as I seem

I care about what you think of me, stranger
Because I was taught that every judgment carries weight
And I'm weighed down
Like sack of rocks strung over my shoulder
You each hold out another for me to collect
