Nothing

This crazy life
Just breaks my heart sometimes
No matter what we do
We still end up alone

All that we gain
Through our good deeds or our crimes
Are castles made of sand
That we think we own

But we have nothing
It’s all an illusion
We have nothing
Just endless confusion

I took a knife
And tried to cut out the part
That I thought was you
But you vanished in the air

I tried in vain
To hold on to my heart
But I opened my hand
And found nothing there

I had nothing
It was all a fiction
I had nothing
Just a sad affliction

You can’t avoid the void
It’s everywhere, every day
That moment you enjoyed
Was just a mirage anyway

We have nothing
That is our lot
We have nothing
That’s all we’ve got
