Pity - ESTERE

Picture this, he was so very young

His eyes were full of confidence

Cascadin' like a sun on everyone

Proud and loud, but he’s a youth that never speaks

Behind his lazy countenance

Was a fear that ran so deep

We all know, we’ve seen it before

Yeah, countless times, deceivin' smiles (Yeah, mmm)

Moons and stars all shut behind bars

Between the lines, are we blind?

Pity, pity (Yeah, no)

Pity, pity (Yeah, no)

Her skin was smooth, ripened like sweet fruit

She had a patient temperament

But she felt she could not fit inside her shoes

Marchin' on, she’d hum a wistful song

Badedebababa, badab, mmm

Why do I feel alone?

Well…

We all know, we’ve seen it before

Countless times, deceivin' smiles (Yeah, mmm)

Moons and stars all shut behind bars

Between the lines, are we blind?

Pity, pity (Yeah, no)

Pity, pity (Yeah, no)

(Mmm, mmm, m-m-m-mmm)

(Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm)

Who’s to blame, who’s to blame, who’s to blame?

Crosses on their names, hidden in the shade (O-o-oh)

Who’s to blame, who’s to blame, who’s to blame?

Crosses on their name, hidden in the shade

(Whoah-go-oah, bom do-lum, do-lum, do-do-lum, lum, mmm)

So hard to see a troubled energy

Prescriptions written for affliction

Won’t be a remedy, no

Walls they fall, and crumble 'round us all

But in the end who’ll be the friend

To open up their door?

(Yeah, mmm)

(Yeah, mmm)
