The pity in your eyes,

when I tell you everything wrong in my life

The way you start talking softly, hesitantly

Afraid you're gonna say something wrong

You stumble over your words,

and keep apologising

I hate it

I don't need your pity

Goddamn it,

don't fucking feel sorry for me

Let's just carry on talking, normally

But that look in your eyes,

doesn't go

And you're staring at me like I'm a lost puppy,

or a rabbit caught in headlights

Like I'm bambi,

slipping on ice

Maybe I am

Maybe, If I were you

I'd look at me like that too
