SYMPATHY

Can you show a little bit of sympathy
Or something please?
I need it
I think I lost my aim, reeling, feeling defeated
I guess I'll write another song and delete it
Because it isn't all what's meant to be
I just feel like it ain't me, staring at a screen
Falling from the mezzanine I hope it make me bleed

Batter up I'm bad enough to die
Saddled up and shattered I'm alive
Things don't change no matter how I try
Run away before I fade tonight

I need a therapy release to get blessed with peace, I plead
One shot and I'm down on my knees again
Can you show a little sympathy

Exhaustion runs through my lungs
Selfishness, it's all for fun
All humility is gone
So I'll find a way to be fine
Wish you'd show a little more kindness
Cause now your animosity's blinding
Affection doesn't always need guidance
With two sides, you'll always be biased
Into me, the need is flowing
Sympathy, you never show it
It's sad enough, commitment isn't mine
It's adding up, I'm bad enough to die

Batter up I'm bad enough to die
Saddled up and shattered I'm a lie
Things don't change no matter how I try
Run away before I fade tonight

Put another face on and my body in the back-seat
Hold it on my hip, so a buddy couldn't blast me
Keep it under lid, till my sons get the best of me
Hold my heart in a hearse like it's meant to be

And you just couldn't believe how
Couldn't believe how I got it back

And you just couldn't believe how I got it all back
I need a new life cause of overreactions, it's
All strife since the day that you left
I said I wish I knew a way to get the cold off my breath

Batter up I'm bad enough to die
Saddled up and shattered I'm alive
Things don't change no matter how I try
Lights go up I fade to black tonight
