Sympathy |
| I know I come to you only when in need |
| I’m not the best believer, not the most deserving |
| But all I have, all I am, all I can for him |
| I beg you on bended knees for him |
| Precious baby, is your life hangin' by a thread? |
| A thread I’m standin' on, prayin' on today |
| All I have, all I am, all I can for him |
| I beg you on bended knees for him |
| I’ve got this curse in my hands |
| I’ve got this curse in my hands |
| All I touch fades to black |
| Turns to dust, turns to sand |
| I’ve got this curse on my tongue |
| I’ve got this curse on my tongue |
| All I taste is the rust |
| This decay in my blood |
| I don’t like the doctor with the deep long face |
| Only wants to give us the very worst case |
| I’d rather shout out and shake him and do anything for him |
| Well I, I beg you on bended knees for him |
| I’ve got this curse in my hands |
| I’ve got this curse in my hands |
| All I touch fades to black |
| Turns to dust, turns to sand |
| I’ve got this curse on my tongue |
| I’ve got this curse on my tongue |
| All I taste is the rust |
| This decay, let me go |
| When the moment strikes, it takes you by surprise and |
| Leaves you naked in the face of death and life |
| There is no righteousness in your darkest moment |
| We’re all equal in the face of what we’re most afraid of |
| And I’m so sorry for those who didn’t make it |
| And for the mommies who are left with their heart breaking |
| Search for meaning in sores |
| The sentences they might form |
| It’s the grammar of skin |
| Peel it back, let me in |
| Look for hope in the dark |
| The shadow cast by your heart |
| It’s the grammar of faith |
| No more rules, no restraint |
| How angry I would be |
| If you’d taken him away? |
| I wish I was wiser |
| But instead I’ll be grateful I’ll say |
| «Thanks for the love, for the joy, for the smile on his face» |
| 'Cause I’d beg you on bended knees for him |
| Oh, I’d beg you on bended knees for him |
