They're all so sympathetic
When they think that they know me
"So simple and pathetic
God loves him, but he's below me"
"He's so wrapped up in himself
Never says, does none important"
I guess they've all forgotten
The times I tried to be enough

*Chorus*
But thank you for your sympathy
That's the best that you can do
I guess I'm lucky to get anything
Like those lies disguised as truth
But I don't want and I don't need it
I think I've had just quite enough
Just hate me or ignore me
If you don't know how to love

Oh, all of my misfortunes
I've felt like I've deserved them
That's why I have tried to run
And go the way of the hermit
But I've still got a heart that beats
And these emotions that run wild
And go around sweet thieves and liars
That fuck with them all the while

*Repeat Chorus*

I stare into my mirror now
Red and wet eyes staring back
Feeling so sorry for myself
Til I scream at me "fuck that"

And fuck all of your sympathy
That's not the best you can do
You wallow in your misery
And safe lies, to avoid the truth
But we don't want and we don't need it
Ain't it time we've had enough
Spent so long just hating me
Oh, but we know how to love

So, forget the rest of the world
What they say and think never mattered
Just kill all of this sympathy
And start to live and love me
