Intro
Riff
Verse 1
I saw the world, it was beautiful
But the rain got in, and ruined it all
Then I tried to be invisible
It was impossible, even for me
I laughed at love, it was a big mistake
In the absence of, I filled it with hate
Chorus
Riff
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah, there's no such thing as nothing at all
Verse 2
same as verse 1):
I had the brains not to think at all
But the rain got in, and I thought too hard
On the world and as usual
I slumped too far, into the void
I tried to make everything meaningless
But the rain got in
And made it a mess
Chorus
Riff
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah, there's no such thing as nothing at all
Yeah there's no such thing as nothing
But my finger's on the trigger and I'll turn off the world
Bridge
So what give me the right
To think that I could throw away a life? even mine
And what makes you believe
That you could get away with getting old?
Overlapping me
Maybe to lose or to save your soul
Is a choice of how
You fill the hole!
Riff
And the rain got in
Chorus
Cause there's no such thing as nothing
Yeah, there's no such thing as nothing at all
There's no such thing as nothing
But my finger's on the trigger and I'll turn off the world
