Sympathy Vote

[Verse 1]

Can you feel how fast my heart's beating?

I can't slow this thing down man

My mind it races but never wins, just like the lesser twin

My friends must all know by now

I'm spent like a bridesmaid alone in her skin

I know I'm not there in person

But I'm worth the long distance

[Chorus]

And for all we know

You were a landslide bringing victory home

But the story goes:

They had their hands tied to the sympathy vote

[Verse 2]

Can't we all be just a bit fleeting?

What you say, what you're believing in

Formulate a stance in your tiny little expert opinion

Then turn the page and wonder

When did we age so gracelessly?

Feel our fabric fade and pull apart thread by thread

[Chorus]

And for all we know

You were a landslide bringing victory home

But the story goes:

They had their hands tied to the sympathy vote

[Bridge]

Can you feel how fast my heart's beating?

I can't slow this thing down man

My mind it races

[Chorus]

And for all we know

You were a landslide bringing victory home

But the story goes:

They had their hands tied to the sympathy vote

[Outro]

My friends, they all know by now I'm spent

Like a bridesmaid alone in her skin

I know I'm not there in person

But I'm worth the long distance

Can you feel how fast my heart's beating?

I can't slow this thing down man

My mind it races but it never wins
