[Verse 1]

It doesn't really matter that I loved you

How many reasons call

It doesn't really matter at all

It doesn't matter that I failed to

Break down your father's wall

It really doesn't matter at all


[Pre-Chorus]

Why tell me you don't understand when you do?

I thought I had something to say, but


[Chorus]

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter


[Verse 2]

I changed my name

To be rid of the things that I want from you

It's strange

But a name is a name and the truth is the truth

Oh, there is always, mm

Always someone there to remind me


[Pre-Chorus 2]

So I learn to live with shame

Tell myself I feel no pain, but I do

And if I have to tell you, that


[Chorus]

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter at all

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter


[Interlude]

It doesn't matter at all

Loving you less, promises promises


[Bridge]

And it's no good looking back

Because time's a thief and I believe that

I'm too old for that

We're just saying the things that we have said

Forever


[Interlude 2]

It doesn't really matter that I loved you

How many seasons fall


[Chorus]

It's too bad, it really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah

It really doesn't matter at all, yeah


[Outro]

It really doesn't matter
