Sympathy for Who

The Oedipus Complex · Anywhere but Nowhere [2007]

Dichotomy lobotomy

Cut my life in half

Spent my days in vain

Tying frayed ends



If there was no desire to be

Wouldn't I have gone away by now

These tedious conversations

Get everything in a conundrum



Maybe it's because of loss

Maybe it was all the skepticism

Don't have much good will to share

With all of these scars I bear

Be apatheic

Sympathy for who

Not for me

And not for you



Where were all my goals

What happened to them

Tongue tied and sly

Slipped right on by



If there was no desire to be

Wouldn't I have gone away by now

These looping conversations

Get everything in a conundrum



Maybe it's because of loss

Maybe it was all the skepticism

Don't have much good will to share

With all of these scars I bear

Be apatheic

Sympathy for who

Not for me

And not for you



I'm still keeping blind faith

One day things will be different

I'm still giving my blood

Just to keep things in control

Shut the door to the way out again



Maybe it's because of loss

Maybe it was all the skepticism

Don't have much good will to share

With all of these scars I bear

Be apatheic

Sympathy for who

Not for me

And not for you



If there was no desire to be

Wouldn't I have gone away by now

These looping conversations

Get everything in a conundrum
