Subject: The Glutton of Sympathy

In the breathless hush of 4 am
In the dark sits a sad clich�
Cloaked in the navy blue of slowly fading stars.

Tell me how this came to be
Sleeplessness talk to me
She'd say over and over again.

Fumbling through a cut glass vase
Passing lipstick, cotton spools
Burning jealous pictures of marriages of friends.

You never asked to be
The glutton of sympathy
She says over and over that this is the end.

'Cause I see it in your eyes
What you don't know, time to let go
I see it in your eyes
There is so much more out there to be learned.

Such mournful words
On this white snow vacant page
All the lessons that she learns
she packs away

Will you never cease to be
The glutton of sympathy
She writes over and over again.

That's when I see it in your eyes
What you don't know, time to let go
I see it in your eyes
There is so much more out there to be learned.

Tossing, turning, roll away
Indecision won't you ever make up your mind ?
Lifetime, nighttime, wake the day
'Cause tomorrow we'll see
If you've had your fill of sympathy

Will you never cease to be
The glutton of sympathy
Don't you know the stars are all fading
Let the sunshine capture the sparkle of your smile.
