Nothing at All

[Verse]

I was aware that time was limited

And that I’d have to keep it brief

But then, the words came out in all the wrong orders

The rest were jammed behind my teeth

[Chorus 1]

So I couldn’t say what I meant

The feeling and the sentiment

Were buried beneath great lengths of nothing at all

What comes next if

I’m unable to express?

I strongly suspect that it’s nothing at all

[Bridge]

Forever feeling the ineffable

Incomprehensible at best

[Chorus 2]

The sentence is forming, but nothing is giving

A jumble of syntax and subtext is pulling me

Further along into saying nothing at all

[Chorus 1]

What I meant, the feeling and the sentiment

Were buried beneath great lengths of nothing at all

What comes next if I’m unable to express?

I strongly suspect that it’s nothing at all
