Sympathetic Noose Lyrics
I got a feeling I can’t lose
I got a sympathetic noose
But I don’t know how to be grateful
Yeah, I don’t know how you’re thankful
I got a feeling I can’t lose
I got a sympathetic noose
‘Cause I don’t know how to lean on
Yeah, I don’t know how to be freed from
You got to keep you head up
You got to let yourself get through
When all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hold inside
And all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hold inside
I got a feeling in my boots
I got to make some sense to you
‘Cause I don’t know how to be careful
Yeah, I don’t know how to be there for
I got a feeling I can’t prove
I got a sympathetic noose
‘Cause I don’t know how you’re grateful
Yeah, I don’t know how to be thankful
You got to keep you head up
You got to let yourself get through
As all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hole inside
And all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hole inside
I got a sympathetic noose
But I don’t know how to be grateful
Yeah, I don’t know how you’re thankful
I got a feeling I can’t lose
I got a sympathetic noose
‘Cause I don’t know how to lean on
Yeah, I don’t know how to be freed from
You got to let yourself get through
When all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hold inside
And all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hold inside
I got to make some sense to you
‘Cause I don’t know how to be careful
Yeah, I don’t know how to be there for
I got a feeling I can’t prove
I got a sympathetic noose
‘Cause I don’t know how you’re grateful
Yeah, I don’t know how to be thankful
You got to let yourself get through
As all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hole inside
And all you’ll ever dream
Lifts you up too high
As all your expectations leave a hole inside

for me, it talks about the toll expectations can have on a person. that a feeling leads to this expectation which can be false and leaves this whole wanting and feeling for that thing to happen become just something not real. yet, you cant let this get to you. its a sad part of life, but you gotta get through it to continue on, even with the emptiness it gives you.
I think it's actually "All you've ever dreamed / makes you want to hide / as all your expectations / leave a hole inside."
Such a great song.
When I first heard abouth "Howl" being an accoustic album, I became very disapointed. Then I heard this song and I realized how wrong I was about judging these guys.
absolutely stunning..This is my favourite BRMC song...I can listen to it a zillion times..
I think there are a few things off here, so here's what I've got...
I got a feeling I can't lose I got a sympathetic noose But I don't know how to be grateful Yeah, I don't know how you're thankful
I got a feeling I can't lose I got a sympathetic noose 'cause I don't know how to lean on Yeah, I don't know how to be freed from
You gotta keep your head up You gotta let yourself get through
And all you'll ever dream Lifts you up too high As all your expectations Leave a hole inside When all you'll ever dream Lifts you up too high As all your expectations Leave a hole inside
I got a feeling in my boots I gotta make some sense to you 'cause I don't know how to be careful Yeah, I don't know how to be there for
I got a feeling I can't prove I got a sympathetic noose 'cause I don't know how you're grateful Yeah, I don't know how to be thankful
You gotta keep your head up You gotta let yourself get through
As all you'll ever dream Lifts you up too high As all your expectations Leave a hole inside When all you'll ever dream Lifts you up too high As all your expectations Leave a hole inside
