Sympathy

Alone in someone's bedroom She firmly took my hand The isolation ended I began to understand In the ping-pong match of constant desire I was never gonna get ahead 'Cause I was looking in the mirror Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you You are to me Let's go Judaeo-Christianity I'd never heard the words Enemies for centuries Until there was a third In the ping-pong match of constant desire I was never gonna get ahead 'Cause I was looking in the mirror Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you You are to me Let's go Diego Garcia Surrounded by the waves Lonely in the ocean But in every other way It was full of love And the warmest fellow-feeling Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you You are to me Let's go I didn't have your sympathy But I knew where to start Explaining to you patiently That the one who broke my heart Would have broken yours And thrown the pieces in the river Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you You are to me Let's go Let's go Desperate for an enemy But too afraid to kill Use the pain of someone else And triumph for their will And spill the blood Of the arrogant mosquitoes Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you You are to me Let's go --- Sympathy - Vampire Weekend
