lyrics

EMPATHY MOVES THE WATER (Jeff Kazor, Jade note music, BMI)

 . ..we are not human, … we are not men,  we are? …..

In a universe full of chaos
There is a tiny piece to remind.  
Way before hashtags were people,
We are the human kind

where everybody hurts  -  
where everybody bleeds  -  
where everybody loves, everybody hates  -
sowing all the seeds 

Empathy moves the water  
Love in the light
Come with me my brother
and walk in my eyes tonight.

Unearthly powers among us
Fear has shot out the lights
Everybody run for cover
Everybody hold on tight

 Empathy moves the water 
Love in the light
Come with me my brother
and walk in your eyes tonight.

Whites back to Europe
Over the wall with Mexicans 
return Blacks to Africa
It’s the color of your skin.  

Empathy moves the water 
Love in the light
Come with me my brother
and see through your eyes tonight.

Down my street, walk down my street,
where men live with husbands
where women live with wives
to love w/out fear 
is to live without lies. 

Empathy moves the water 
Love in the light
Come with me my brother
and walk in my shoes tonight
In my eyes, 
see in my eyes, 
It's In your eyes, 
In yours eyes

Make it all great again ya, hay  
America the same again ya, hay
Little boys w/ invisible wounds 
And in the mirror you see empathy

I was gone just for a minute but now I’m back 
Take away the fear and what do you have
It’s what holds us together  
It's what tears us apart

In the great transition we’ll need love
The world is mostly water, it’s just the same as us.
How many clicks does it take to soothe the sorrow? 
Touch is just a swipe away.
