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
