Pity And Fear Lyrics

The song Pity And Fear is performed by Death Cab for Cutie in the album named Narrow Stairs in the year 2008 .



I have such envy for the stranger lying next to me
Who awakes in the night and slips out into the pre-dawn light
No words, a clean escape, no promises or messes made
And chalks it all up to mistake, mistake, mistake

There are no tears just pity and fear
The vast ravine right in between

A storm at sea, bow cracked and I was capsizing
I sunk below where I swore I would never go
If you can't stand in place, you can't tell who's walking away
From who remains, who stays, who stays, who stays

There are no tears just pity and fear
The vast ravine right in between

There are no tears just pity and fear
I recall the push more than the fall
The push more than the fall
