Sympathy

Iris DeMent

    Continues after the ad

    Stranger than your sympathy
    This is my apology
    I'm killing myself from the inside out
    And all my fears have pushed you out

    I wish for things that I don't need
    All I wanted
    And what I chase won't set me free
    All I wanted
    And I get scared but I'm not crawling on my knees

    Oh yeah everything's all wrong yeah
    Everything's all wrong yeah
    Where the hell did I think I was

    Continues after the ad

    Stranger than your sympathy
    I take these things so I don't feel
    I'm killing myself from the inside out
    Now my head's been filled with doubt

    It's hard to lead the life you choose
    All I wanted
    When all your luck's run out on you
    All I wanted
    You can't see when all your dreams are coming true

    Oh yeah it's easy to forget yeah
    You choke on the regrets yeah
    Who the hell did I think I was

    Stranger than your sympathy
    All these thoughts you stole from me
    I'm not sure where I belong
    Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong

    And I wasn't all the things
    I tried to make believe I was
    And I wouldn't be the one to kneel
    Before the dreams I wanted
    And all the talk and all the lies
    Were all the empty things disguised as me
    Yeah stranger than your sympathy stranger than your sympathy
