Pity - Matt Nathanson

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
