Glory in "Sympathy"

Stranger than your sympathy
And this is my apology
I killed myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out


And I wished for things that I don’t need
(all I wanted)
And what I chased won’t set me free
(all I wanted)

And I get scared but I’m not crawlin’ on my knees

Oh, yeah

Everything’s all wrong, yeah

Everything’s all wrong, yeah

Where the hell did I think I was?

And stranger than your sympathy

Take these things, so I don’t feel

I’m killing myself from the inside out

And now my head’s been filled with doubt

We’re taught to lead the life you choose

(all I wanted)

You know your love’s run out on you

(all I wanted)

And you can’t see when all your dreams aren’t coming true

Oh, yeah

It’s easy to forget, yeah

When you choke on the regrets, yeah

Who the hell did I think I was?

And stranger than your sympathy

And all these thoughts you stole from me

And I’m not sure where I belong

And no where’s home and no more wrong

And I was in love with things I tried to make you believe I was
And I wouldn’t be the one to kneel before the dreams I wanted
And all the dark and all the lies were all the empty things disguised as me

Mmm, yeah

Stranger than your sympathy

Stranger than your sympathy

Mmm hmmm mmm

-Goo Good Dolls

I wonder who they are think they are talking to in this song. Because I am sure it is in refrence to some girl who broke one of their hearts, but if you read deeper they are crying out for a true "sympathy."  Not that God's motives to redeem us were out of sympathy for us, they were obviously for his Glory because who could have "sympathy" for the human condition but the one ture God. Glory in his Sympathy. Thanks Goo Goo Dolls, I pray you find what sympathy you truely seek, even if you don't think it's what you are seeking.
