lyrics

Sympathy

Eternal youth under her skin
Flowing like a river within
She dances like the devil’s inside
With a ticket for a trip on a one-way ride

Down, down in the valley beneath
They search, they search for Sympathy
Down, down in the valley beneath
They search, they search for Sympathy
Behind the cigarette glow
Down the darkest road

Where is Sympathy?
I night in the life of Sympathy
No one cries for Sympathy
But the lights they shine for her


She flaunts herself with painted skin
Played a game she could never win
Her story remains unsolved
Only psychic spies will ever know

Down, down in the valley beneath
They search, they search for Sympathy
Down, down in the valley beneath
They search, they search for Sympathy
Where did she go, no one knows
What happened that fatal night
She left the party when she got in a fight

Where is Sympathy?
I night in the life of Sympathy
No one cries for Sympathy
But the lights they shine for her
Where is Sympathy?
I night in the life of Sympathy
No one cries for Sympathy
But the lights they shine for her
