It Really Doesn’t Matter – Written Monday 13th September 1999 (Aged 24)

It Really Doesn’t Matter

it really doesn’t matter
what you think of me
no, it doesn’t, not really
over there is blindness
and you can’t see beyond there
well, i have my friends
and i have her
so it really doesn’t matter
you treat me like an idiot
you think,
you are better than me
but i have my friends
and i have her
and with their belief in me
it really doesn’t matter
people like you are two a penny
and i have met, far to many
you are all the same
you expect a fair deal for who you are
but you do not give one back
it doesn’t really matter
i have her
and she knows i am better
i have my friends
and they keep it all together




James Garratt – Monday 13th September 1999
