Sympathy
Are you ready for this one?
Because it's going to hurt like hell. Yea.
So, here now is to sympathy.
at least that's what we always knew her as.
She was all about empathy.
But she could never figure how to fit right in.
So, follow through once
With what you've said and
Walk Away, and know that
I will always be there for you.
So, to the girl we knew as sympathy.
She never knew just who she was quite yet.
We always gave her all our empathy.
But she could never find her inner strength.
So, follow through once
With what you've said and
Walk Away, and know that
I will always be there for you.
I may have your pity.
But you have my sympathy. My sympathy.
And you have my sympathy.
Yes you have my sympathy.
And just for the record.
Just so you know.
If i were to see you right now,
I'd tell you
where you could go.

No Way Out
why'd angel fall from grace?
with broken wings
or was it a broken heart?
soon, with blind faith
you'll try to find a way out
war is here
hell on earth
broken angels
taking their vengence
how could this possibly get worse?
the chance to finally disperse
and claim the place that you once held
right beside god. ...oh
why'd angel fall from grace?
with broken wings
or was it a broken heart?
soon, with blind faith
you'll try to find a way out
And there's no way out
& despite your doubts
just forfiet & learn to quit.

Confidence
won't you listen to the things, that i have to say
cause come tomorrow, come tomorrow
i might not be here.
and i just can't stand by idlely
& wait to be your 3rd choice when i
should have been the first... the first.
so, show me why? tell me why?
i can never be like him.
she says lies, & i ask why
it's to gain your new found confidence.
you could have done so much worse
but now it's way too late to makes things right
and it makes me so sick inside.
you showed me the shallow point of view
as i always knew cause this is how they
always want us all to look... to look.
so, show me why? tell me why?
i can never be like him.
she says lies, & i ask why
it's to gain your new found confidence.
if i could change & shed my skin
maybe things could be different
she says try, i still ask why
to gain your confidence...
because i wonder how it feels to be with you
i wonder how it feels to be with you...
so, show me why? tell me why?
i can never be like him.
she says lies, & i ask why
it's to gain your new found confidence.
and i am who i am
and that's just... fine.

The Waiting
I hate the waiting...
I hate not knowing what's coming next.
It's so frustrating... I'm sick of not knowing what to expect.
No more if's & ands or buts. The time has come, & I've had
enough.
Something's got to give or break. There's only so much i can take.
With you it all just falls apart. I should've known right from
the start.
I suffer here now unto you. Awaiting the time to start a new.
Speak these words that no one hears. I never meant to be sincere.
Leaves me here as "just a friend", forever trying to make
ammends.
I hate the waiting... I hate not knowing what's coming next.
It's so frustrating... I'm sick of not knowing what to expect.
With you it all just falls apart. I should've known right from
the start.
I suffer here now unto you. Awaiting the time to start a new.
Save me... from the person i thought was meant to... save me.
I hate the waiting... I hate not knowing what's coming next.
It's so frustrating... I'm sick of not knowing what to expect.
No more wearing hearts on sleeves. And no more words meant to decieve.
No more burdens left to weigh. And no more time left here to wait.
No more if's & ands or buts. The time has come, & I've had
enough.
Something's got to give or break. There's only so much i can take.
With you it all just falls apart. I should've known right
from the start.
I suffer here now unto you. Awaiting the time to start a new.
Save me... from the person i thought was meant to... save me.
I'm thru...
I'm thru waiting.
I'm thru...
I'm thru waiting.

Not Quite Yet
i wish i could close my eyes
& wake up when you've grown up
but i might as well just hold my breathe
maybe i'm to blame for this consequence
but don't forget, it's not quite yet
don't forget, it's not quite yet
what's the consequence in confidence
forget them 'cause they're always wrong
and all the things you do, you always knew
to be quite true, so always stay strong.
and all you knew to be true
was your mistake to persue
how could i have been so wrong
how was i so wrong?
how could i have been so wrong?
don't you compromise now
what's the consequence in confidence
forget them 'cause they're always wrong
and all the things you do, you always knew
to be quite true, so always stay strong.
it's not quite yet
