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

She´d 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´d hold me

She´d hold me, when I was out there

My father, my father he liked me

Oh he liked me, does anyone care?

Does anyone care?"
