about

Remixed demo, recorded 1995.
Original mix previously released on the demo tape "Smaller Than Elvis".

lyrics

My life is a series of attempts
To get as much as I can
I won't stop in my efforts
To filter any gold from my dirty dirty pan

You just can't mean a thing
It's every me for myself
I'm drowning responsibility
So my only concern is my health

CHORUS:
And sometimes I get empathy sickness
And the problems of the world are mine to solve
And sometimes I get empathy sickness
And any problems you got, we got to resolve

My life is a series of wrestles
I'll be as selfish as I possibly can
But I fail when I succeed
You said that you were hurt, I turned around and ran

REPEAT CHORUS

And I never get anything done
And I never get anything done
Spend my time searching for the sublime
And I never get anything done or undone

I can't allow the advantage
To fall from me and fly to you
But I'll never use you to step back up
It's basically why I'll never break through

All of the time I got empathy sickness
And the problems of the world are mine to solve
All of the time I got empathy sickness
And any problems you got, we got to resolve
