Author's note: I originally set out to write a song named "Empathy" as a companion to "Apathy." That didn't work out but I got an idea from it for a song that the charachter Rory in my story could write. I took what I had and made it as girly as possible. So I'm not sure if I want to call it Empathy, You Can Relate, or Perfectly Pitiful. Either way I think it's complete trash, as (no offence) most Liz Phair, Hillary Duff, Avril Lavigne girl stuff is. Think Hoobastanks "The reason" on this song: A really gay song from a normally cool band. Of course if you do like it I could just delete this note and pretend I meant it all along. Anyway this is long enogh so I'll stop... Now.... No..... Now.... No....... Now!

All the times I stood there,
With ready arms, And open eyes.
Waiting there in case you fall.
Your safty net, I heard your cries.
I always caught you through it all.
And now:

I'm standing here
And I watch you pass me by.
A perfectly pitiful example
Of my entire life.
And you can relate.
You know how I feel
That's just another stupid thing I hate.
And you can relate.

All the times I stood there,
Without a thought, and few regrets.
Unhappy there but all the same,
Your one true friend, I loved you, yet,
I always felt you felt the same.
But now:

I'm standing here
And I watch you pass me by.
A perfectly pitiful example
Of my entire life.
And you can relate.
You know how I feel
That's just another stupid thing I hate.
And you can relate

All the times you lay there.
Stare at the stars, and wonder.
Where was your man, your meant to be.
I was laying there, right next to you,
Secretly wishing, hoping it was me.
So now:

I'm standing here.
I watch you pass me by.
A perfectly pitiful example,
Of my entire life.
But you can't relate.
You have no idea
About how I feel.
Just another stupid thing I hate.
This perfectly pitiful example
Of my entire life.
