Sympathy By John Carter

I don't want your sympathy
I just want you here with me
Though I sing so awkwardly
Only you can comfort me

And the night falls down like a window shade
Your words cut me like a blade
I can't feel the simple pain
But I can hear the things you say

I can't take this pain from you
It's something I could never do
So I will turn and walk on through
The cold, hard place I always knew

I don't want your sympathy
I just want you here with me
Though I sing so awkwardly
Only you can comfort me

I can stay or I can go
Love waits for me, this I know
I can't be your puppet show
because a puppet just can't grow

Cut my strings and walk away
I still hear the words you say
Maybe I'll be back someday
Reclaim the life you took away

I don't want your sympathy
I just want you here with me
Though I sing so awkwardly
Only you can comfort me...
