Lyrics The House - Points

Don't look
I'm a mess again
Did I really think that I would ever know you well?
We built our little house of silk and words
And then it fell

Let's survey the damage
Let's take a week and not return
Guess it was mismanaged
To say the least

Do you miss being near to me?
'Cos there's one thing clear to me
I don't want your sympathy

Let's embrace the damage
We fixed it up a bit too late
Guess you weren't enamoured
With the whole affair

I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy no more
No more

Let's survey the damage
Let's take a month to heal the burn
Guess you lost your balance
Can you tell me what you really learned?

Beyond how to waste your time
On love that you can't give
Or how to build a house,
Where you don't want to live

And it comes and then it goes
This shiver of the skin
And the walls are falling down
And the house is caving in

I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy
I just want you near to me

I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your sympathy
No more
