Careless

He took my cares from me

Now I care for nothing

He buried them

Behind his granny's barn

In a wooden box

With a broken hinge

All of these carefree days

Are as empty as a virgin's womb

So I feign interest in everything

But fool no one

And I ruin my back

Forcing a rusted spade

Through thick Nebraska soil

On a fruitless search

For rotten concerns

For something I need

For something or someone

That needs me
