For Those Hearts That Can Choose

How come people you never thought you'd know 

Know exactly who you are?

They read your mind a long time ago 

And we both feel the scars 

They say that empathy is a saintly thing

And we all know it's true

I commit the murder right next to you

And I feel the guilt too

I die like the death in you 

While I follow your muse

She'll rise with the breath in me 

And whisper the truth

The crooked stall that we all avoid 

In the corner that turned dark 

Spoken words written on the wall 

Of homeless men in the park 

I die like the death in you 

While I follow your muse

She'll rise with the breath in me 

And whisper the truth

Peace is far but hope's near 

For those hearts that can choose 

To bare their own pain 

While they love others too 

I die like the death in you 

While I follow your muse

She'll rise with the breath in me 

And whisper the truth
