how could you feel anything at all 
if you don't feel it for yourself first? 
you are doing something somewhere 
it seems you can't do anything else 
you simply have to do what you do 
you can't help yourself but to die 
 
and so it seems that what you feel 
is what you can feel for yourself 
if you are sensitive to injustice 
try to be less of a little cry baby 
and if you couldn't care any less 
you are nothing but a monster 
 
and so i looked at selfless love 
i forgot myself to see all of us 
how i could not please everyone 
and so i decided to let it in 
such is the profound nature of man 
that i would rather weep with you

self-entitled empathy
