My empathies

So tell me your reasons for living, forgiving, & what you believe in
the pieces we're keeping the start out at the end
& it gets deeper & deeper & deeper
Please don't stop,
keep pretending,
don't look back the world keeps changing
Please don't stop just keep pretending,
I can't relate (no no)
This is for the moment to arrive without reason (reason)
good times & the bad
that they leave me breathing,
I just can't relate
don't look back the world keeps changing
