Sympathy Card - Naive Lyrics

I don't understand - I tried to see your point of view
I don't think that you're prepared for how the pieces move
A little naive to think your anger's so deserved
And, what a relief, you found a shelter in your fear

You'll go on about your day like something's after you
So, hit 'em with a line - a little white lie, because you hate the truth
That this is weakness - a futile pattern well rehearsed
A vicious routine - lose yourself behind your words

And, if you're so strong
And, if you're so brave
When we play pretend, look me in the face
'Cause we're not that strong
All the best ones break
Pick yourself back up
Time to claim your strength

And, you'll be angry like this forever 'less you can learn to disengage
Take a look how these fading pictures all could use a different frame

And, if you're so strong
And, if you're so brave
When we play pretend, look me in the face
'Cause we're not that strong
All the best ones break
Pick yourself back up
Time to claim your strength
