Glutton Of Sympathy Lyrics - Spilt Milk - Jellyfish

In the breathless hush of 4 a.m. 

In the dark sits a sad cliche 

Cloaked in the navy blue of slowly fading stars 

Tell me how this came to be 

Sleeplessness talk to me 

She'd say over and over again 

Fumbling through a cut glass vase 

Passing lipstick, cotton spools 

Burning jealous pictures of marriages of friends 

You never asked to be 

The glutton of sympathy 

She says over and over that this is the end 

'Cause I see it in your eyes 

What you don't know, time to let go 

I see it in your eyes 

There is so much more out there to be learned 

Such mournful words on this whitesnow vacant page 

All the lessons that she learns she packs away 

Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy? 

She writes over and over again 

That's when I see it in your eyes 

What you don't know, time to let go 

I see it in your eyes 

There is so much more out there to be learned 

(Tossing, turning, roll away) 

Indecision won't you ever make up your mind 

(Lifetime, nighttime, wake the day) 

'Cause tomorrow will see if you've had your fill of sympathy 

(Tomorrow will see) 

Will you never cease to be the glutton of sympathy? 

Don't you know the stars are all fading 

Let the sunshine capture the sparkle of your smile
