Stranger than your sympathy This is my apology Take myself from the inside out And all my fears have pushed you out And I wish for things that I don't need All I wanted And what I chase won't set me free It's all I wanted And I get scared but I'm not crawling on my knees Oh, yeah, everything's all wrong, yeah Everything's all wrong, yeah Where the hell did I think I was? Stranger than your sympathy I take these things so I don't feel I'm killing myself from the inside out Now my head's been filled with doubt It's hard to lead the life you choose All I wanted When all your luck's run out on you All I wanted You can't see when all your dreams are coming true Oh, yeah, it's easy to forget, yeah You choke on the regrets, yeah Who the hell did I think I was? Stranger than your sympathy All these thoughts you stole from me I'm not sure where I belong Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong And I wasn't all the things I tried to make believe I was And I wouldn't be the one to kneel Before the dreams I wanted And all the talk and all the lies Were all the empty things disguised as me Yeah, stranger than your sympathy, stranger than your sympathy
