Everything/Nothing

Everything

I feel everything

It's mine and only mine to wear

It's a jacket

From my mother

Jean with some tears

Everything

I see everything

Nothing is lost on me

But I lose my composure

Like the jewelry that I wear

She told me search for the joy, well

Shouldn't it just come and find me

I'm not a cynic, but lord

Sometimes it's hard to see

That everything is nothing

Everything is nothing

Everything means nothing

Without the other

The other

Nothing

I feel nothing

The second time around

I'm met with death and destruction

Can't see the point in grieving now

Nothing

Give me nothing

Just let me rot

And paint a still life

And everything

Is fleeting

And I'm left with this

She told me search for the joy, well

Shouldn't it just come and find me

I'm not a cynic, but lord

Sometimes it's hard to see

That everything is nothing

Everything is nothing

Everything is nothing

Without the other

The other

Maybe they're the same and

I'm just working on

Differentiating them

She told me search for the joy, well

(I've been at my lowest)

Shouldn't it just come and find me

(Beauty and the terror)

I'm not a cynic, but lord

(Never would've known it)

Sometimes it's hard to see

That everything is nothing

(But I need both)

Everything is nothing

(But I need both)

Everything is nothing

(But I need both)

Without the other

The other

I need
