You block out the world
So you won't feel any pain
We block out the noise
And we only have ourselves to blame
We all know the truth
As they're spewing out the lies
The world we know comes crashing down
Right before our very eyes
Empathy or apathy
You'll always have a choice
Empathy or apathy
Soon you'll lose your voice
You turn away and numb yourself
So you won't feel any pain
We'll open up your fucking heart
And feel what we're feeling
The anger and the sorrow
Yeah I know it fucking hurts
Everything comes tumbling down
Unless our culture can revert
Empathy or apathy
You'll always have a choice
Empathy or apathy
Soon you'll lose your voice
Stop numbing every angry feeling
Stop blocking out your empathy
The life you live is just a farce
So their livestock will quietly
Feed your fucking fire
Feel our fucking pain
The collective human soul is wailing
Screaming out for brighter days
