Sympathy

(album: The Unknown - 2014)

"Oh hey, it's me. I don't know if you'll get this but I just wanted you to know that it's been just too much and I'm so done with it all and it's, it's over. Bye."

You're like the fallen leaves on the pavement
You lost yourself and your colour again
You're like the trees bending with the wind
You fear the storm

I am the northern wind, I'm cold as ice
Under my skin so pale like snow
I'm pouring down on your face
I'm pouring down on your story, so long

I am a cup of tea
I have burnt your skin just with my touch
You won't come close to me ever again
Won't taste me ever again

And you're running like a child
The world's got no sympathy this time
You lost the piece of mind
You liked the most, I know

And you're running like a child
From what you know deep inside is right
I was there to hold on tight
As we set our hearts on fire

We're like a three-minute song played on repeat
I was singing along
Your mouth wouldn't speak the words
Your ears wouldn't hear my words

You're like the end of a road
That I regret walking on for so long
Now I'll turn my back
I will find a new map

You're like the weight of the whole world on my shoulder
You try to bring me down
You make it seem worse than it is
You make me feel worse than I did

And you're running like a child
The world's got no sympathy this time
You lost the piece of mind
You liked the most, I know

And you're running like a child
From what you know deep inside is right
I was there to hold on tight
As we set our hearts on fire

You're like that one favourite book that I used to love
That I've read a hundred times
I'm gonna burn it down to the ground
I'm gonna throw it out, out, out

You're like a thought in my head
That I sorted out now
Finally
Leave me, leave me, leave me

And get out of my mind
The world's got no sympathy this time
Get out of my head
As I set our hearts on fire

(Fire, fire, fire, fire)
(Fire, fire, fire, fire)
(Fire, fire, fire, fire)
(Fire, fire, fire, fire)
