all that we need is empathy
all that we all need is a little bit o’ empathy
so ask me how I feel, then ask me what I need,
cuz all that we all need is empathy
I'm just a thirty seven year old high functioning autistic kid
I come from Southern California so I'm sexually perverted
I got OCD and PTSD, and ADD and ever frickin thing they talk about
I even caught a couple STD's that I like to brag about
they cleared right up with antibiotics, I promise,
my word is good you can trust me
have…… some…... empathy!
it's not all his fault you see
he’s probably that way cuz his
mommy abused him psychologically
and even she learned it from her own daddy!
a perpetual feedback cycle a tragic expression of unmet needs
and all that we need is empathy!
all that we all need is a little bit o’ empathy!
so ask me how I feel, when I see what I see
and what I need,
cuz all that we need is empathy!
when I was in sixth grade it was all just fun and games
junior high came as a scary disturbing awakening
getting stuck with needles in the hall
they spit on my face, held me down and squeezed my balls
as the other kids walked by and just laughed at it all
the institution's a disgrace ya it ain't no place for kids
the establishment wants us all to all give up and just cave in
bury your feelings, pretend you have no needs
don’t be human, just be a slave to society
but now, I have eyes to see
that all that we need is empathy
all that we all need is a little bit o’ empathy
so we can see clearly
what we feel and what we need
all that we need is empathy
cuz when we don't see our feelings and our needs clearly
we tend to react with irrational strategies
so I just need ya to be there to help me to remember
cuz sometimes I forget
then the feelings build up and do shit I regret
and all that we need is empathy
all that we need is a little bit o’ empathy
nobody wants to admit or even see,
that even they are a little bit fucked up psychologically
I’ll be the first to admit
but not the first to proclaim this shit
all that we all need is empathy
all that we all need is a little bit o’ empathy!
so ask me how I feel
then ask me what I need
cuz all that we need is empathy!
