i finally got this song downloaded....i soooo love it...now i can play it when im in one of those not so good places,or to reinforce when i am!!!!! ......thought you all might enjoy the lyrics which ring so true for so many of us....it is country,by jo dee messina

1st verse)

Well you filled up my head,
With so many lies.
Twisted my heart
Til something snapped inside.
I'd like to give it one more try
but my give a damn's busted.

You can crawl back home
say you were wrong,
stand out in the yard
cry all night long.
Well go ahead and water my lawn.
My give a damn's busted.

(chorus)

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Nope...
Sorry...
Nothin'

(2nd verse)

You can say you've got issues.
You can say you're a victim.
It's all your parents fault,
After all you didn't pick em
Well maybe Oprah's got time to listen.
My give a damn's busted.

(*Well let me get this straight now)
Your therapist said
It was all just a phase
A product of the prozac
And your co-dependent ways
So uhh ... who's your new neighbor these days
My give a damn's busted.

(chorus)

I really wanna care,
I wanna feel somethin'
Let me dig a little deeper...
Eeh-Eeh

(3rd verse)
(*Oh you're tellin' me)
It's a desperate situation,
No tellin' what you'll do.
If I don't forgive you,
You say your life is through.
Well honey... give me somethin' I can use.
(My give a damn's busted.)
(*Ahh you knew I was gonna say that, didn't ya.)

My give a damn's busted (*ha ha)
My give a damn's busted
Honey trust me
My give a damn's busted yeahhh ...
OOOH
My give a damn's busted yeahhh
(*You wanna do what?)(*ha ha ha ha ha)
My give a damn's busted
(*Get the party started thats what we'll do)
My give a damn's busted
(*I'm not done honey, trust me)
My give a damn's busted
(*Been there, done that)
My give a damn's busted
My give a damn's busted

I love that!!

Mine was busted a while ago - and the freedom that came when it happened was immense. That's not to say that I don't have some level of compassion, just that I have taken myself out of the "solution" loop. The day I realised that my response to any attempts by R to get me to "help" him would be a shrug and a "You know a great counsellor and you know where the AA meetings are" showed me that I finally "got it."

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.

Thanks, Sunshinebluesky, this is one of my favorite songs. I also like the song by George Strait (She Let Herself Go).
