I can tell you what wanna hear, so you don't have to see
That I'm hardly breathing, I can't hide, any longer
I am feeling stronger, finally.

Don't wanna hear you say that it's too late
To say that you're sorry now, I set you free...

Sympathy, I'm not after all I need is the love you promised me.
Can't you see, what I'm after If I can't have your heart
Then I want your sympathy.

Times goes by, so will I, if you don't close your eyes
To the way you're seeing me, I'm alright, still alive
A little hole inside, oh my heart is healing.

Don't wanna hear you say that it's too late,
To say that you're now, I set you free...

Sympathy, I'm not after all I need is the love you promised me.
Can't you see, what I'm after If I can't have your heart
Then I want your sympathy.

But these few words I say to you
Can only mend my lonely heart and you're ready I will fall

Sympathy, I'm not after all I need is the love you promised me.
Can't you see, what I'm after If I can't have your heart
Then I want your sympathy.

Can't you see it's your love I'm looking for, it's your love that I need
She's so damn beautiful.
