We Are The Movies – Empathy lyrics

Cure this affliction that burns a void in me
I need to get myself up again.
Is this just friction in a bleak reality?
It may be time for drastic measures,
But am I ready to be saved?
I know the plot of this story
Reaching out and coming up empty.
I’m told that patience is a virtue,
But my time is nearing curfew.
But you and I - you and I both know
It’s all worth reaching for.
No motivation, I beg for stronger will.
This all-or-nothing thinking is doing me in.
But in an empty shell,
There’s nothing left to kill.
Inject some peace of mind
So that I can learn to live.
(Cut the cord and break away)
So that I can learn to live
I know the plot of this story
Reaching out and coming up empty.
I’m told that patience is a virtue,
But my time is nearing curfew.
But you and I - you and I both know
It’s all worth reaching for.
I see fear surrounding you
(But I’ll find the strength to see this through)
Bleeding into all you know.
When we’re feeling inside out
And all alone,
There is nothing left to do
But move.
So that I can learn to live
I know the plot of this story
Reaching out and coming up empty.
I’m told that patience is a virtue,
But my time is nearing curfew.
But you and I - you and I both know
It’s all worth reaching for.
It’s all worth reaching
It’s all worth reaching for.
