WAX WAV - Empathy Lyrics

B.O.R.E.D. - am I too old to be
Am I lazy or do I have anxiety
Am I retreating inward
Am I under siege
Am I American values
Am I overseas
Am I collected calm cool leadership
Am I in over my head
Am I up to my knees
Do I need some prescription apathy
Can I bail on the group
Do they need an excuse
Can I use the flu
Am I as sick as you
Am I the only one who can't muster it
When you feel it slipping away, and you feel it crashing down
I'll be the empathy inside your heart
I'll be the empathy inside your home
And you won't get around me
Am I being emphatic or am I being mean
Am I a burnout or is it medicinal weed
Is it creeping up
Is it creeping me out
Am I lost in the woods
Am I lost in the crowd
Am I collected calm cool leadership
Is it a push and pull
A spark that drags me out
Do I need the approval
Do I need the doubt
Does it overwhelm
Does it paralyze
Does it look at your soul
Does it look in your eyes
Am I the only one that can't muster it
When you feel it slipping away, and you feel it crashing down
I'll be the empathy inside your heart
I'll be the empathy inside your home
And you won't get around me
Empathy is lacking in our conversation
I know you got it on the tip of your tongue
Empathy is lacking in our larger dialogue
Everyone is looking out for number one
