Lyrics Empathy - Axelle Red

Empathy

Empathy
As the leaves start to fall down
Our days are getting shorter
Minds are shivering
Winter’s coming in
We 're about to make a vow
Now that we 've questioned religion
Moral values are fading fast
Do we learn at last?
As the sun’s supposed to turn cold
At this changing of the season
We enjoy a quite warm afternoon
It will be dark now very soon
When we think that no one cares
An ex boy soldier 's crying
He says no right to love for him
Ruthless on girl he 's been
Mmmmm
Here we are now wandering mankind
Who are we going to blame?
Are we not the same
Are we not the same
Guilty when we came (?)
Unless we get through our life experience
That bit of empathy
Are we not the same
Are we not the same
We invent our children 's names
Dressed we all aim for that latest style
Made in China as we know
Keeps the price low
Don’t we want to have it all
But when a father sells his little girl
To work in a factory
We claim misery
Mmmmm
Here we are now wandering mankind
Who are we going to blame?
Are we not the same
Guilty when we came (?)
Unless we get through our life experience
That bit of empathy
Are we not the same
Are we not the same
Through the naked trees we see
A rhinoceros agonising
For 5 hours, it happens every day
His predator didn’t kill his prey
Now we don’t see the point
Of this stressful existence
And it’s vanity
To think we have empathy
Mmmmm
