[Verse]
Sometimes I’d hear a melody
The sound of what could be
Had I not placed myself down at your feet
To soothe your every whim
Oh, the best part is that if I
Could go back and tell those lies
I’d do it all again and again and again and again
It was not strength it was not love
It was not passion, it’s a drug
To fill the cavity of you me every mortal on this earth (oh, nothing)
Was I too weak, was I too strong?
Was I the paradox of song
Appearing headstrong publicly
Submit my soul in privacy (ah, ah, ah)
?
Was not the first to live this lie
Was not the first to hide my light
(occultate)
We’re talking thousands of years
Of hidden dreams and hidden rights
You gave your all it wasn’t enough (oh, oh)
I gave my all it wasn’t enough
Oh now we’re nothing
I am nothing at all
[Chorus]
I am nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
I am but light, no accolade
I have no credence little faith
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
And from the sweetest kind of nothing
Comes the very thing we are
[Vocal Solo]
Mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
[Verse]
I might be wrong might be unkind
Some ugly **** was on my mind
I was a preacher to an audience
Of nothing but my pride (nothing)
Hard to swallow, hard to crush
Tarred myself with my own brush
I was a human of a nature (eeh, ah)
Dispositioned not to trust
Not to hope, but to pray (pray)
Not to deserve, but to pray (pray)
Not to want, but to pray (pray, pray oh)
But now sweetie leave others take your place
Oh I was forced to swallow light
It wasn't fair it was not right
Now I could care less
I am the incarnation of a subtle fight
[Chorus]
I am nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
I am but light ,no accolade
I have no credence little faith
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing nothing at all
And from the sweetest kind of nothing
Comes the very thing we are
[Post Chorus]
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, nothing at all
Nothing, at all
Nothing, at all
Nothing, nothing at all
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse]
I’d hear an aching in the dark
I’d hear a memory
Of the box I let you put me in till I
Suffocated with the weight of my own dream (dream)
It was not right it was not fair
You made it your business not to care
I do not think that you remember
Or indeed you ever will
Us who bear you to be weak (ooh)
Commit the kind of crimes you seek
Seek the kind of crimes you do (ooh)
To prove the strength we could not give to you
Even our mothers of a school (ooh)
Teaching us to hide our truth
To give up everything yes everything (ooh)
For little in return
To fear the power of my will (ooh)
And shame the body that I’m in
To fear the vision of a life (ooh)
Where I am equal to him
It’s like the mud of a thousand years (ooh, ooh)
Thickened every tear
Now I release it cleanse my vision (ooh, ooh, aah)
Shake off every fear
[Chorus]
(ah, ah)
I am nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) I am but light no accolade
(ah, ah) I have no credence little faith
(ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) And from the sweetest kind of nothing
(ah, ah) Comes the very thing we are
[Post Chorus]
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
(ah, ah) Flow, le you empty
Flow, le you
[Verse]
You were right on this you know
To find your bliss is to find your flow
Always I sought this from outside
The permission to be alright
How could it ever come from you?
Just as frightened as me too
This is a partnership with She
Creatra merges us as two
Then forced us desperately apart
To mend these sick and ugly hearts
And flood the daylight in
The clarity that surfaces as art
There are two chords there is the word
There is the power to be heard
There is the joy there is the choice
And privilege to raise my voice
[Chorus]
(ah, ah)
I am nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) I am but light no accolade
(ah, ah) I have no credence little faith
(ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(ah, ah) And from the sweetest kind of nothing
(ah, ah) Comes the very thing we are
(Flow, le you empty)
(ah, ah)
Nothing, nothing at all
(Flow, le you empty)
(ah, ah) I am nothing, nothing at all
(Flow, le you empty)
(ah, ah) I am but light no accolade
(Flow, le you empty)
(ah, ah) I have no credence little faith
(Flow, le you empty)
(ah, ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
(Flow, le you empty)
(ah, ah, ah, ah, ah) Nothing, nothing at all
And from the sweetest kind of nothing
Comes everything we are
