the cranberries - ode to my family

Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
'Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me, d'you see?
Do you like me, do you like me standing there?
D'you notice, d'you know?
Do you see me, do you see me?
Does anyone care?
Unhappiness, where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother, she hold me
Did she hold me when I was out there?
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh, he liked me, does anyone care?
Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you, I miss
'Cause I liked it, 'cause I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know this, d'you know?
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care?
Unhappiness, was when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother, she hold me
Did she hold me when I was out there?
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh, he liked me, does anyone care?
Does anyone care? (x8)
