That Kind Of Pity

Disco: Hope [1997]

I felt a kind of pity

And all that sort of things

I took the law into my own hands

And the events that led up to the war

I lay where I have fallen

It didn’t lie with me

I should like more time

I should like to know why

 

I felt it getting hot

A page littered with mistakes

But, just how many I don’t know

Because I told them to go away

I lay where I have fallen

It didn’t lie with me

I should like more time

I should like to know why

 

I’m not one to take things lying down

Although I live on hope

 

And even if

The words don’t fit

Together, I promise

I won’t walk away

That and nothing else

It’s all that I can say

But you don’t forget

I’ll do my level best

 

I felt about in the dark

Trailing behind broken dreams

Where the plants grow in the ground

Although everything’s really as it seems

I lay where I have fallen

It didn’t lie with me

I should like more time

I should like to know why

 

I’m not one to take things lying down

Although I live on hope

 

And even if

The words don’t fit

Together, I promise

I won’t walk away

That and nothing else

It’s all that I can say

But you don’t forget

I’ll do my level best
