Sympathy is a knife (Explicit) - Charli xcx

Lyrics by：Charlotte Aitchison/Finn Keane/Jonathan Christopher Shave

Produced by：Charli xcx/Finn Keane

I don't wanna share the space

I don't wanna force a smile

This one girl taps my insecurities

Don't know if it's real or if I'm spiralling

One voice tells me that they laugh

George says I'm just paranoid

Says he just don't see it he's so naive

I'm embarrassed to have it but need the sympathy

Coz I couldn't even be her if I tried

I'm opposite I'm on the other side

I feel all these feelings I can't control

Oh no

Don't know why

All this sympathy is just a knife

Why I can't even grit my teeth and lie

I feel all these feelings I can't control

Oh no

Don't know

Why I wanna buy a gun

Why I wanna shoot myself

Volatile at war with my dialogue

I'd say that there was a God if they could stop this

Wild voice tearing me apart

I'm so apprehensive now

Don't wanna see her backstage at my boyfriends show

Fingers crossed behind my back I hope they break up quick

Coz I couldn't even be her if I tried

I'm opposite I'm on the other side

I feel all these feelings I can't control

Oh no

Don't know why

All this sympathy is just a knife

Why I can't even grit my teeth and lie

I feel all these feelings I can't control

Oh no

All this sympathy is just a knife

All this sympathy is just a knife

All this sympathy is just a knife

Yeah all this sympathy is just a knife

Oh no oh no

Why is all this sympathy a ******* knife

Yeah all this sympathy is just a knife

Couldn't even be her if I tried

Oh no oh no
