Be Nothing

+ Show full styles

[Intro – whispered] Breathe in… breathe out… Just tryin’ to empty my heart tonight. A soft beat’s driftin’ through the room, and the night’s meltin’ slow, like whiskey on ice. [Verse 1] They tell me, “be nothing,” but hell, I don’t know how. Is “nothing” a zero, or some dream half-asleep? The more I think, the louder the static hums. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe if I kill the phone’s cold light, and let the silence wrap around, I might drift a little closer to some sky no one’s ever seen. [Chorus] If I could be nothing — would it change a thing? Would money fall from heaven, would love finally ring? Maybe not, and that’s alright. If my heart just feels a little lighter, I’ll try again tonight — yeah, I’ll try to be nothing. [Verse 2] Monks talk about the “void,” floatin’ easy on the wind. Wish I could float like that, but this neon buzz keeps singin’ in my head. [Pre-Chorus] Take a breath, one more time, hear the small sound in the dark. If I could carry nothin’ in my hands, maybe that’s what peace is, after all. [Chorus] If I could be nothing — the world turns clear, all the sorrow fades into synth-waves hummin’ low. Be nothing… just drift, just go.
