Here you are pushing twenty one |
|
And you've got nothing left to do |
|
Say the sun shines last on you |
|
You're popping pills to make it true |
|
But don't leave here with my advice |
|
As if it's right to listen to |
|
Because I could never live up to this |
|
I couldn't stand for this |
|
I couldn't give respect to you |
|
What do you get from me |
|
This much I'll never see |
|
What do you get for being here |
|
Signed sealed sympathy |
|
Here we are talking so sincerely |
|
Like a lie could break us two |
|
I could never lie to forgiving eyes |
|
But I can lie so well to you |
|
Friends can mean such different things |
|
But friends have never been like this |
|
Because I know that it's a different thing |
|
That only pain could bring |
|
And it's a pain that starts with you |
|
What do you get from me |
|
This much I'll never see |
|
What do you get for being here |
|
Signed sealed sympathy |
|
This is the way |
|
This is the price |
|
No one ever makes it taking losers advice |
|
This is the point that can't be refused |
|
Sympathy is something that can never be used |
|
Here you are pushing twenty two |
|
And there's a world that's closing fast |
|
You never had the time to |
|
Sit this long |
|
To find that you belong |
|
And now that time has passed |
