my throat is raw from screaming
I'm calling your name
but my voice is gone
leaving only a harsh whisper
and you don't hear me
you don't hear me

I've spread myself so thin
I'm wearing down
and I'm tearing apart
I'm trying to keep you sheltered
but you don't feel me
you don't feel me

all I do is care
I do all that I can for you
but I can't do it on my own
can you help me care for you?

my eyes are sore and weary
I haven't slept
in years it seems
I'm here for you all the time
and you don't see me
you don't see me

love, I know you're hurting
although you say
that it's nothing at all
why won't you talk to me?
I can't take this
anymore

all I do is care
I do all that I can for you
but I can't do it on my own
can you help me care for you?

I can't give up hope
I wish I could say
the same for you
there's pain behind your vacant eyes
that look right through me
look right through me

all I do is care
I do all that I can for you
but I can't do it on my own
can you help me care for you?

I'm trying hard to reach you
my hand's outstretched
for you to hold
but I am hanging over the edge
I think I'm falling
into your hell

all I do is care
I do all that I can for you
but I can't do it on my own
can you help me care for you?
