I Don't Care About You
F.e.a.r. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

South Street Philadelphia
Out from Avenue C
I seen it in the eyes it was ready to freeze
From the valley hotel

I don't care about you
Fuck you!
I don't care about you
Fuck you!

I see Hollywood boulevard
Wellfair hotel
I spent the night in jail
In the Well ... hotel

I don't care about you
Fuck you!
I don't care about you

I see and old man ahve a heart attack in Manhattan
Well he dies while we just stood there lookin' at him

I don't care about you
Ohhhhhhhhh
I don't care about you

I see man rollin' drunks
Bodies the streets
Some man was sleepin' in puke ..... ....... rollin' on 5th street .... ......

I don't care about you
Oh noooooo!!
I don't care about you
Fuck you!
I don't care about you




Hey! Hey
I don't care about you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of F.e.a.r.'s song "I Don't Care About You" express a sense of detachment and apathy towards the world around the singer. The song seems to describe a series of experiences in different locations, from South Street Philadelphia to Hollywood Boulevard, in which the singer witnesses or participates in various acts of violence, degradation, and indifference. The opening lines of the song suggest a feeling of impending danger, as the singer senses that something is "ready to freeze" in the atmosphere. This sense of unease continues throughout the lyrics, as the singer describes the ways in which people in different places and situations are mistreated or neglected.


The repeated refrain of "I don't care about you" and "fuck you" underscores the singer's sense of alienation and disaffection, as if they are trying to distance themselves from the world around them by rejecting any emotional attachment to it. The final lines of the song, which describe a man rolling drunks and someone sleeping in their own vomit, create a sense of despair and hopelessness in the face of such pervasive degradation.


Overall, the lyrics of "I Don't Care About You" convey a dark, nihilistic worldview that rejects the possibility of connection or empathy with others. The song suggests that the world is a harsh and unforgiving place, and that the only way to survive is to adopt an attitude of indifference and hostility towards those around us.
