lyrics

For Your Sympathy (J. Sunga)

A light from your porch burns through the screen
And yearns to be seen
On cars and on planes they rush to be near
With hearts and with tears
The world at the end is a day yet again
A day like yesterday
An honest mistake I am sure
But time will reveal your absence no more

So I'll wait for
I'll wait for your sympathy to hail down
To hail down all over me
I will be found when you come around again

Narrowing paths grow painfully long
Without your song
Saved from the fear that kept you away
Why can't you say
I'm sorry, I wanted to be there
My heart bled
I'm here now, I'm holding your hand
But words are not easy to find
The awkward avoidance is truly unkind

So I'll wait for
I'll wait for your sympathy to hail down
To hail down all over me
I will be found when you come around again

I never expected to be left neglected from you
Don't fail me now
I don’t care how, just come through, come now
You won't, no you can't let me down
Oh no, ooh

I'll wait for
I'll wait for your sympathy to hail down
To hail down all over me
I will be found when you come around again

The silence will fade
The headlines could move
Still waiting on you
