Empathy

As the days grow colder now
And everything is lost
A vision forms of better men
Rising from the cross

Never held the key to life
Finally their loss
Rising from the emptiness
And all that ever was

The battle rages on 'til now
Many men were lost
Dried into an empty shell
Nailed onto the cross

As I lie awake by now
Having never loved
Heaven sent for all of us
So painful our loss

In the eyes of the world, a believer
But I'm sure they are turning away

Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling?
Pain has come and the world will surely hide
In empathy

And then the world's religious fools
Come knocking at your door
Mankind is not wiser now
I've heard it all before

Still the mindless will hail the deceivers
And I'm sure they'll be turning away

Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling?
Pain has come and the world will surely hide
In empathy

Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling?
Pain has come and the world will surely hide

Takes me down to a place below
Can't you see I'm falling?
Pain has come and the world will surely hide
In empathy

Empathy, in empathy
(And the world will hide)
In empathy, in empathy
(And the world will hide)

In empathy
(Yes, the world will hide)
In empathy
(The world will hide)
Empathy, empathy
