I Dont Care At All
Language of Flowers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You say that you need time,
But what does that mean?
You packed your bags to go,
To start your life alone,
I hope you're happy.
I stayed awake all night,
I wish you'd said so.
You know you're not the only one
Tired of never having fun
When we're together.
Since you left me,
Now I can see,
I'm better off without you,
Now you're gone.
[Repeat x2]
I don't care what you're doing,
I don't care who you're seeing,
Don't think I care for you at all.
For you at all
I only needed time,
I thought that we'd be fine,
And you'd be in my arms again.
I'm happy on my own,
I won't pick up the phone,
Don't want to hear your voice again.
Don't break my heart,
I can't stand to be apart from you,
I've been such a fool.
Well, I found someone new,
And yeah, he loves me too,
I'm so glad you've gone.
Yeah, I found someone new,
And yeah, he loves me too,
I'm so glad you've gone.
[Repeat x2]
I don't care what you're doing,
I don't care who you're seeing,
Don't think I care for you at all.
For you at all, for you at all [Repeat x4]
For you at all
In "I Don't Care at All," Language of Flowers depicts a relationship that has come to an end. The singer's partner has packed up and left, citing the need for time and independence. The singer is hurt and confused, wondering how things could have gone so wrong, "Can I do nothing right?" However, as time passes, she begins to see the relationship in a new light. She realizes that she is better off without her partner and that she doesn't really care what he is doing or who he is seeing. She has found happiness on her own and has even found someone else who loves her.
The song is a classic breakup anthem, exploring the pain and confusion that come with the end of a relationship. It speaks to the universal desire to be loved and the fear of being alone. It also speaks to the power of time to heal wounds and the possibility of finding love again.

You say that you're not mine,
You claim that you do not belong to me,
You say that you need time,
You state that you require some time to yourself,
But what does that mean?
But I am unsure of what that truly indicates,

You gathered your belongings to depart,
