Another little piece of nothing

Recorded in the autumn of 2005.

Shut down, not so fast
Watch me going insane
Take another little piece of nothing
But it’s wrong wrong everyday
And I’d sell my songs for gas
And drive to France and paint a picture

And sip wine on a Tuesday noon
And tell everyone to go fuck themselves

A dog day that don’t allay no allegations
Put the shutters up, let my guard down
‘Cause this is nothing I can convey
And if we decide not to exist
Then we decide not to assist

In the cliché we call quest
And that would be wrong
’cause this is what we do best

It took time took time
We’re not halfway there
Still we’re farther than we were
when we first started
A million ways of losing
Went through them all
Still there are a million more to go
until we’re there

But it’s a one-acter and a two-faced crowd
And I can’t even breathe
And if somebody would confront me
I think I’d lie or slip away
And they say what I am
Guess I am what they say
But nobody could ever change me

Especially not those who think
that money is all there is

It took time took time
We’re not halfway there
Still we’re farther than we were
when we first started
A million ways of losing
Went through them all
Still there are a million more to go
until we’re there

My love, my all
Anyone of us could fall
All out of help
All out of hope
When he’s losing ground again
She’s of out bounds again
Time’s running out again
And they’re down for count again

With nothing to lose
Nothing to stake
Nothing to break
We got nothing to waste

But I could walk with a million holes
Burrowed into my heart
Just to assure them we’ll always be here
