Carefree
I wished your sun did not go down
You don't deserve a moon
You don't deserve to close an eye
You should be left with your thoughts and nothing but your thoughts
Those mean close to evil thoughts
The ones that make your skin itch for something sharp
But you'll sleep safe and sound
You're fine with your actions
Why wouldn't you be?
I'm no longer your issue
I am just a moment, a phase
A memory that had to be left behind
It's over so you don't care
You don't care
That's why my sun is still up
You don't care
Even if I can't close my eyes for the next 100 years
You don't care
If my skin itches and aches and burns for something sharp
You hurt me
You don't care
You don't deserve a moon
You don't deserve to close an eye
You should be left with your thoughts and nothing but your thoughts
Those mean close to evil thoughts
The ones that make your skin itch for something sharp
But you'll sleep safe and sound
You're fine with your actions
Why wouldn't you be?
I'm no longer your issue
I am just a moment, a phase
A memory that had to be left behind
It's over so you don't care
You don't care
That's why my sun is still up
You don't care
Even if I can't close my eyes for the next 100 years
You don't care
If my skin itches and aches and burns for something sharp
You hurt me
You don't care

Ambiguity increases the variations of interpretations overlapping and filling in. This gives ordinary speech metatranslatable power. People can see how it fits together from any angle. Universal. That's the heartbeat of us all.
You hurt me.
You don't care.
These lines can be said an infinite number of nuances and interpenetrations.
