Nothin'

All · Percolater [1992]

when it adds up to nothin' it makes you wonder why

you try. stunned and numb left wondering why when the

truth is cruel, the lies turn white.

i called and couldn't reach you,

i got too hung up. i'm a phase that you've outgrown,

lying in the darkness all alone.

you got a fake i.d. and somewhere else to be with someone

who isn't me. tell yourself it meant something,

used to mean a lot to me. something died,

just the pain survived. when i got tired of crying

i dried my eyes. burn the bridges that you must,

past to ashes, trust to dust,

empty loneliness and lust.

love wasn't enough, trust wasn't enough.

i believed what you said was true,

ever always only you. just another broken trust,

nothing's forever. i believe what you said was true.

it wasn't enough. i believe that you meant it too.

it wasn't enough 'cause your promise means nothin'

much less than nothing', 'cause you left me with nothing now.
