Weight Of Empathy Songtext
With sunken eyes I raise my weary head

Before the sullen rising of my apathy

I taste of the life that giveth to me

Smothered in the growing weight of empathy

Falling to my bloodied knees
I scream to a god that some may claim they've seen

Beneath me burns this harrowed land

Cracks in this barren earth threaten to swallow me



Waiting for this feeling to subside

Opening my eyes, I face this empty life

See this world in its slow decay

Dying of a plague, mankind's insanity

Reigning from the skies above

Covering this land in blackened death and grief
Where is the voice of reason?

Lost in translation or just trying to ignore?



And I won't ever let you see

The hatred and the pain I've seen

And I won't ever let you be

As alone or misled, like I've been

And I won't covert all your pain

To bleed you dry of life again

And I won't ever make you plead

For your sanity on your hands and knees



Don't leave me here to face the turning tide

Don't leave me here to see the dawning light

Don't leave me in a world that has gone numb

Don't leave me here to find my way
