Lyrics

AND PITY, PITY…
© Cyrus Dali Vesuvala


I don’t need your fucking pity,
Haven't yet lost all my pride-
I don’t need your damned charity:
All I ever asked for was your time.

If my loving you makes you think you're stronger,
And has caused me to drop some, in your sight-
If you think you can keep me hanging on indefinitely longer-
Baby, you just haven't earned that right.

Whatever other rights you might have acquired,
Whatever other people you might think you own,
If you think you've got me strung and wired,
This might come as some surprise, but you don’t!

So you see, I don’t need to know your pity,
Nor your reason nor your rhyme,
I don’t need no one's charity,
And now, baby, I don’t even need your time…
