[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon]
I erased you
From my every waking memory
I replaced you
With a vision that you won't see

[Pre-Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Pity is a four-letter word
And so is quit
(And so is left, but I'm…)

[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon]
Right where you wanted me
Feed from the inside
Out of bitter sympathy
You want me wrong, but I'm right

[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon]
May I remind you
It doesn't take much time to call?
Can I respect you
If a man was never there at all?

[Pre-Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Pity is a four-letter word
And so is quit
I thought you knew that pity was a four-letter word
And so is quit
(And so is left, but I'm…)
[Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon]
Right where you wanted me
Feed from the inside
Out of bitter sympathy
You want me wrong, but I'm
Right where you wanted me
Feed from the inside
Out of bitter sympathy
You want me wrong, but I'm right

[Refrain: Lajon Witherspoon]
I replaced you
With a vision that you can't see

[Chorus 3: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
(Right where you wanted me)
Feed me from the inside
(Out of bitter sympathy)
You want me wrong, but I'm
Right where you wanted me
Feed from the inside
Out of bitter sympathy
You want me wrong, but
(I'm out of bitter sympathy)
Right where you wanted me
(Out of bitter sympathy)
