Next To Nothing

I'm keeping out of sight staying low

Always being quit moving slow

Nothing but a face in the crowd

Trying not to make my fuss to loud



I won't forget my place I stand in line

I always try to pay the rent on time

Trying to find a way to kill my days

Waiting for the frame to crack



Next to nothing, next to nothing

Next to nothing at all



Never been close to what I want

I know what to do but still I don't

I'm sticking to myself I make no sound

Waiting for a chance that might not come



Next to nothing...



Just a flicker in the needle's eye

Just a grain in a desert storm

Just a drop in a river gone dry

Nothing much at all



I've always tried to do what I've been told

Only know my neighbors through the walls

Looking out the window at my street

I don't think this place was meant for me



Next to nothing...
