Sympathy

Goo Goo Dolls,Sympathy

Stranger than your sympathy
This is my apology
I'm killing myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out

I wish for things that I don't need
All I wanted
And what I chase won't set me free
All I wanted
And I get scared but I'm not crawling on my knees

Oh yeah everything's all wrong yeah
Everything's all wrong yeah
Where the hell did I think I was

Stranger than your sympathy
I take these things so I don't feel
I'm killing myself from the inside out
Now my head's been filled with doubt

It's hard to lead the life you choose
All I wanted
When all your luck's run out on you
All I wanted
You can't see when all your dreams are coming true

Oh yeah it's easy to forget yeah
You choke on the regrets yeah
Who the hell did I think I was

Stranger than your sympathy
All these thoughts you stole from me
I'm not sure where I belong
Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong

And i wasn't all the things
I tried to make believe I was
And I wouldn't be the one to kneel
Before the dreams I wanted
And all the talk and all the lies
Were all the empty things disguised as me
Yeah stranger than your sympathy
Stranger than your sympathy

Sometime i just feel how sucky my life is,when its all judged and sympathized by those who really dont have anything to do with my life at all. how pathetic it is when the value of one's life is based on how others think about you. I have always thought that this is who i am, i dont need your compliments to make my life better, and i dont need your sympathy to make my life more miserable either. well, its easy to say, but hard to do in real life as i still care about what others say about me, think about me. Itry to practie detachment but to be truthful, its really hard to do that when you are tied by the bond of relationship with people around you. freindship, family, love etc.

what a paradox human is, what a paradox person i am.
