A Waste Of Compassion
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wait... Prey...
Patience is the answer
Praise your conscience
For I was left alone
Again brutish necessity
Wipes its hands upon the napkin
Of a dirty cause again
A waste of compassion
But just you wait
Just you wait
Now I am hurting too
You act divine when taking the pain alone
I run away, but I'm taking the fall
Grief... Hate...
And I've got you to blame
Praise your conscience
For I was left alone
Again brutish necessity
Wipes its hands upon the napkin
Of a dirty cause again
A waste of compassion
You act divine when taking the pain alone
I run away, but I'm taking the fall
You act divine when taking the pain alone
I run away, but I'm taking the fall and I take you down with me
