Lyrics Pity - Matt Nathanson

Pity

Don’t touch, leave me here
I don’t need your sympathy and I don’t need your tears
I haven’t slept for days now, maybe more
Just leave me here in selfishness, close the door
If you hold me, I might find it safe
If you hold me, I just might cling to you
If you hold me, I’ll be no good on my own
My control will be gone
Don’t look, I don’t need your support
You see I’ve built this wall around myself and it keeps me up
I won’t be babied, so please don’t baby me
Just leave me in my corner, I created all this misery
If you hold me, I might find it safe
If you hold me, I just might cling to you
If you hold me, I’ll be no good on my own
My control will be gone
I’m not faithful, don’t fool yourself
I won’t change for you know or anybody else
Let me fall
Let me fall, let me realize all the things I’m missing
Let me crawl
Crawl on back to you and the dreams we had together
