Sympathy Vote Letra

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

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

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

Can you feel how fast my heart's beating?
I can't slow this thing down man
My mind it races

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
