Sad and lonely is your only truth Hold on to your youth, until it fades away Never get sad, it's turned your friends on you The girl that they knew has somehow lost her way CHORUS To hear the queen of sympathy Love is waiting to be forgiven Please the queen of sympathy She's wide awake and needs attention now To make us suffer, get the upper hand You cried on demand, but we're so sick of that To make us suffer, get the upper hand You cried on demand, but we're so sick of that CHORUS To hear the queen of sympathy Love is waiting to be forgiven Please the queen of sympathy She's wide awake and needs attention now We heard you somehow did things that you really didn't want to You couldn't hold out, and now you're looking for a rescue So look around now, and see there's no-one really there for you So what will you do when your wedding is over? CHORUS To hear the queen of sympathy Love is waiting to be forgiven Appease the queen of sympathy She's wide awake and needs attention now The queen has slipped away, away, away The queen has slipped away, away, away The queen has slipped away, away, away
