Alanis Morissette — Empathy

[Verse 1] There are so many parts that I have hidden and denied and lost There are so many ways that I have cut off my nose to spite my face There are so many colors that I still try to hide while I paint And there are so many tunes that I secretly sing as I wait [Pre-Chorus] You come along and invite these parts out of hiding, oh This invitation is the one that I've stopped fighting, oh [Chorus] Thank you for seeing me I feel so less lonely Thank you for getting me I'm healed by your empathy, oh This intimacy, oh [Verse 2] There were so many times, I thought I'd die not being truly known There've been so many moments: forever lonely in my vocation [Pre-Chorus] You come along and celebrate each feeling, oh And there you are all honor and inquiring, oh [Chorus] Thank you for seeing me I feel so less lonely Thank you for getting me I'm healed by your empathy, oh This intimacy, oh [Bridge] There was a day where the trust that was being asked of me Required too much you see to accept your generosity And to know myself enough to let you help me [Chorus] Thank you for seeing me I feel so less lonely Thank you for getting me I'm healed by your empathy, oh This intimacy, oh
