Empathy for the Devil (Part I) Songtext
von Alb

Now there′s something I can't see
And I know you won′t disagree
Tell me you're not a friend
I saw you take back what you gave
Guess that nothing else can be saved
Tell me just where you went

Oh, my friend
Can't you see that this was coming
Don′t tell me to fold again
How′re we going to win
Can't you see that this was coming
Did you have to kill the flame

Now there′s something in the wind
And I'm drowning in somebody′s sins
Maybe you've lost your friends
And now you′re there


Take a close look at yourself
Does it feel like you're somebody else
None of us can tell
And once again

How did something turn to nothing
Don't tell me to fold again
How′re we going to win
Can′t you see that this was coming
Did you have to kill the flame

Your skin is cold
You're on your throne
And all those faces that surround you
Will leave you where they found you
′Cause you sold
Everyone you know
It wasn't easy to be lied to
But nothing that you touch now turns to gold

Can′t you see that this was coming
And all that time we spent
Blown away in the wind
While it's all turning to nothing
You′ll be all alone


Can't you see that this was coming
And all that time we spent
I don't know where you went
You′re just drifting, no one′s listening
And we step back in the shade
