Miss Sympathy

Everyone thinks I’m a good girl, the one who smiles
The one who is nice to everyone
But did anyone stop and think about me?
Did anyone question that maybe, just maybe
I might not be the one who needs all the sympathy?

Did you see past the tears, the lies, the fucking bitches?
No. I didn’t think so
So why are you being nice to me now?
Now when it doesn’t matter
Now when you can open this wound again and again
Fuck off bitch. Don’t touch me!

Chorus
Let me go, let me go
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy
I don’t care what you say (SHUT UP!)
All you did was hurt me. Why would I help you?
Shut your face. There was never little miss nice girl
I’ll slam the door on your face every single time
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy

I don’t care if you bitch about me no more
Why should I? It doesn’t mean anything to me
You asked if I ever loved him.
I do (Bitch) and this is just me being nice
So don’t say it. You’ll be the one hurt now

I’ll tear you to shreds. Don’t think I can’t
You’re a little stuck up piece of shit.
You didn’t deserve half the words I said
Not even half the friends you have now
You make me sick

Let me go, let me go
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy
I don’t care what you say (SHUT UP!)
All you did was hurt me. Why would I help you?
Shut your face. There was never little miss nice girl
I’ll slam the door on your face every single time
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy

Did you even mean half the things you said to me?
I know I did
I regret them now. What a fool I am
To think you were my friend, my confidante
To think you could manipulate me like that
To think you’d believe that I’d like you after that

Ask me now and I’ll give you the same answer
I hate you as much as I did then
I know hating people is bad but what you did is unforgivable
I’ll never call you my friend. What am I? Dumb?

What did you call me behind my back?
Stupid? Bitch? Naïve? Loose? Whore?
Well you know what?
I’ll call you all those now
Don’t think I can’t cause I will

Let me go, let me go
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy
I don’t care what you say (SHUT UP!)
All you did was hurt me. Why would I help you?
Shut your face. There was never little miss nice girl
I’ll slam the door on your face every single time
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy

He know, you know
He knows that you’re a stupid little bitch who tore me again
And now I’m glad that what you did to me
I can tell the rest of the world for them to judge
To judge that I’m not Miss Sympathy

Let me go, let me go
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy
I don’t care what you say (SHUT UP!)
All you did was hurt me. Why would I help you?
Shut your face. There was never little miss nice girl
I’ll slam the door on your face every single time
Don’t you dare say I’m Miss Sympathy

I wrote this song because a ‘friend’ of mine abused the fact that I have a massive crush on this guy since year 8 and she and a friend of hers masqueraded as the guy and tricked me into believing that her friend was my crush over msn. And when I confronted her about it, she flipped me off and said “Why do you love him? You don’t even know him!” And, as you do, I got angry and seethed. This whole pranks made me break things off with a guy I had been seeing because I genuinely loved my crush. I’m not angry that I broke it off with the guy I was seeing. He understands because he was my friend for years. I’m angry that she could make such a brazen attack. Sure, I didn’t know anything about my crush but seriously, who does? Does everyone know everything about the person they fall in love with? No. So why do I have to know anything?

The more I thought about her words, the more I knew she was never my friend so I wrote this song. It’s a combination of an attack on her and an attack on all those people who thought I was naïve and stupid. Sympathy is good for a while but after that, it’s is annoying and irritating and it’s frankly one step away from being manipulative. And as I wrote this song, I realised that until I moved to my final high school, I didn’t have friends who never tried to manipulate me in any way. The high school I moved away from was the worst I’ve ever had and it will still linger with me. The song I’m In Love With A Guy I Don’t Know is just one of the many in which those two years hurt me.

Songs are my way of ranting. This is the only one with intense swearing and I’m sorry but it’s how I felt at the time. A couple years of ‘teenage angst’ is embedded into this song so...yeah.

Hope you liked it. Comment and tell me what you thought.
