I made it back to life After a while recovering When someone burns your pride You know an ego's hard to mend
Was only tryna be nice Took me all night to work the nerve No need to patronise I won't take less than I deserve If I can't have it all don't give me
Sympathy, sympathy I never asked for pity from you Sympathy, sympathy Cut me loose, don't be so cruel, oh
I know you mean no harm And let me down so easy Still to reject my charms It's hard with no good reasoning
But don't worry it's cool Just need to make you understand That there's no substitute (no substitute) Can't crush my heart then hold my hand You can turn me down, just don't give me
Sympathy, sympathy I never asked for pity from you Sympathy, sympathy Cut me loose, don't be so cruel, oh
Oh, you treat me so cold You might as well go I'd be better alone Yeah, can't play with my pride Then throw me aside I'm here asking why
Oh, you treat me so cold You might as well go I'd be better alone Yeah, can't play with my pride Then throw me aside I'm here asking why
Oh, you treat me so cold You might as well go I'd be better alone Yeah
