lyrics

i admire your tendency to just shut off
because once i start, i can't stop.
my only hope is to completely exhaust,
overload, crash and fall apart.

i want to keep myself above apathy,
but this is what caring does to me
my hopeless resolve reveals only
masochistic tendencies

can't give it up, can't give it up
focus on fixing what exists only in my mind

-

I’m a very nervous person, and when i care about something (which is often) i put a lot of energy into caring about it. This can run me into problems- which this song explores. Despite what i say here, i think caring is so so much better (and cooler!) than apathy, even if i do worry myself sometimes.
