Sympathizer

(album: Light It Up - 2017)

Sign says you're seeing red
We are not bred to back your threat
I don't care where you cut your speech
I ain't buying your sound
I want to walk on a common ground
Settle down and raise 'em 'round
A higher power and P.M.A.
And you ain't got what that takes

I can't say we're bound to lose
Cut losses, carry on through

Can't win 'em all and you don't need to
Can't build a wall if we don't want to
Sympathize with whomever you choose
Just take it out of this world
So says the corpse to the man
"I never thought I'd breathe again"
In a shallow tank nobody understands
The fiery wind you call truth

I can't say we're bound to lose
Cut losses, carry on through
It's safe to bet you've burned our bridge
Go to sleep we'll wake you when...

It took a little reacting
It took a lot of rejection
To show your sympathy
It took a little reflection
It took a lot of pretension
To show your empathy

I can't say we're bound to lose
Cut losses, carry on through
It's safe to bet you've burned our bridge
Go to sleep we'll wake you when...
