When No One Cares
Junior Boys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the phone never rings
The nights are endless things
You're like a child that cries
And no one heeds the crying
You're like a star that dies
And seem to keep on dying
When no one cares you count souvenirs
And they glisten with your tears
You can't believe a love like hers
Could come from someone new
When no one cares, but you
When no one cares, but you
When no one cares, but you
The lyrics of Junior Boys' song When No One Cares convey a sense of loneliness and despair. It speaks of a person who feels completely alone and neglected, who spends their nights reminiscing about the past, hoarding souvenirs that remind them of better times. This person feels like a child who cries out for help but is ignored and like a dying star, continuing to fade away.
The lines "You can't believe a love like hers/Could come from someone new" suggest that this person has recently experienced a break-up or betrayal, leaving them feeling lost and unlovable. The repetition of the line "When no one cares, but you" highlights the idea that this person is truly alone, with no one to turn to for comfort or support.
Junior Boys are known for their unique blend of electronic and indie-pop music, and the melancholic lyrics of When No One Cares are a perfect match for their sound. The song was released on their album Last Exit in 2004 and received critical acclaim, establishing them as one of the most exciting new acts in the indie music scene.

Even if someone new enters one's life, it can be hard to trust or accept their love, due to fear or past hurts.
When no one cares, but you
Despite the overwhelming sadness and despair, there remains a glimmer of hope and self-reliance, a sense that one can endure and care for oneself, even in the absence of others.

Repeating this refrain underscores the theme of resilience in the face of loneliness and adversity.
When no one cares, but you
The line also suggests a measure of empowerment, agency, and responsibility for one's own well-being, even as it acknowledges the pain and isolation of being uncared for.
