Lyrics

Empathy

Her innocence above me

Today is dead, she's around my head

Between my history, between my headphones

This is her home, forever her home

But I can't be her brother

To empower her, to become her

Trawl through this forgiveness

My memory's so empathy low

Empathy low

Empathy low

This attitude beneath her

The evidence it denies us

Proves herself to be closer

But not me, forever not me

This sickness avoids all cure

Imperfection, my downfall

Learn myself through symptoms

My memory's so empathy low

Empathy low
