Your Empathy

for that moment
Waiting to share the only things
That no one else could bear.
Will you still see me
In the dead of night?
Wanting and waiting
For a certain spark
To set us all a place.
Your empathy flows down
Just like the pouring rain
Im down here below
Soaking it up like a spounge
Will you still see me
when the nes day comes?
Wanting and waiting
For that certain spark
To set us all ablaze.
The Wipers - Your Empathy
Your Empathy stands as a defining track within the expansive catalogue of The Wipers, capturing the raw intensity that defined their early punk and post-punk output. Frontman Greg Sage crafted a sound characterized by jagged guitar lines and urgent vocals, often exploring themes of alienation and emotional dissonance. This recording exemplifies the band's ability to distill complex feelings into concise, driving arrangements that resonated deeply with listeners in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. While the song appears alongside other notable works from their formative years, it remains a testament to their innovative approach to rock music. The Wipers' influence on alternative rock is profound, and tracks like this highlight the emotional depth and sonic experimentation that continue to inspire musicians across generations.
