this life is full of empty spaces
we try to fill them but lose patience
this life is full of dark places
we try to face them but gravity it takes control

we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round
we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round

we are something just as we are nothing
we are everything we feared we’d be
we are nothing that we want to be

we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round
we got nothing to hold on
we got no place to call home

we’re falling
we’re falling

this life is full of endless races
we try to run all but lose traces
this life is full of sad faces
we try to smile but gravity it takes control

we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round
we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round

we are something just as we are nothing
we are everything we feared we’d be
we are nothing that we want to be

we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round
we got nothing to hold on
we got no place to call home

we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round
we’re falling yes we’re spinning ’round

we’re falling
we’re falling

love based on nothing
is the purest love
attached to no condition
not bounded by place and time
this type of love will always be
for it requires nothing
if love was based on beauty
and beauty faded so would love
if love was based on something
and something ceased to exist
so would love
but love based on nothing is
permanent and has no limits
because we say that nothing
is permanent which is same as
saying the only thing that is
permanent is nothing so love
based on nothing is permanent
for even if there is something
then there is always nothing
and if there is no thing then
that is nothing in itself
so love based on nothing
is always there ready
to just be itself unconditionally
for it needs nothing to go on
it needs nothing to maintain its
existence for it comes out of nothing
and even if there is no you
the love will still exist
for even if there is no me
the love will still be there
love based on nothing
is the purest love

You've been standing there for way too long.
C  Cadd9 C                  Cadd9
Hey now, something's on your mind.
Cmaj9              Dadd9    Cmaj9        Dadd9
You've been standing there simply wasting time.
C                           Cmaj9
And i watched your thoughts racing by.
    C                  Cmaj9         Am
And i watched your old fears become alive.

Chorus:
G                D            Am
I've watched men run with the horses free.
G                D            Am
I've watched men work like a horse all day.
G                D            Am
I've watched men cry and i've watched them laugh.
           G      D          Am
As for me, i want nothing at all right now.
C         Cmaj9       Am
That's all enough for me.
C         Cmaj9       Am
That's all enough for me.

Hey now, what's been going on?
I've been sitting here for way too long.
Eyes closed, nothing's on my mind.
I've been sitting here simply wasting time.
I've stripped myself bare and i am live.
Let go of my judgmental mind.

(float)

Chorus

Hey now, another moment gone.
We've been letting go of what's been holding on.
And now, we're becoming free.
I am becoming you, you becoming me.
And now we hear people crying here right now.
We see people dying here right now.

i picture us as two balls of energy floating in space surrounded by white light
the never-ending bliss of being close to each other while letting go of everything
everything that has ever held us back from trully expressing what it means to be free
peel the onion and step through to the other side say hello to your true self
there is no end and no beginning just you and me forever smile and take a ride
its magick

you can never understand
what i really said
you can never comprehend
see things from my end
you never took the time
to really hear me out
you never felt the need
to really figure out
what it is that makes me ill
what it is that makes me feel
what it is i need to fill
didnt even deal me in
when you got to highest hill
always only offered pill
giving in without a will
always living for the thrill
always getting the last kill
always dream and never real

easy like its always been
slowly changing pace.
numbness illness filling in,
years went by it always seemed.

what’s in where did we put?
who’s in what knows where it was?
maybe simply lost respect,
sence of ability to see?

maybe never knew what it really was?
thought you always said
you were more than that?
more is always good regadless of the cause?

maybe i had always thought,
without really knowing why,
if you start the race
try to keep the pace, till the finish line?

maybe its not really who and what,
thought, said, or was right in which respect?
maybe its just heart beats over thought?
can’t force love, no one will object.

this is not called nothings
nothing’s is the name
same as short for nothing is
if you play the game
i need to know your pain
to know you are feeling mine
i want to feel the need
of blade rip through my spine
no one ever knows
how you are feeling now
everyone’s the same
dying in the end
between love and hate
nothing can be changed
between love and hate
everything’s the same
blade still cuts the vein
remebering the past
bleeding dulls the pain
nothing’s meant to last
