Down To Nothing

DOWN TO NOTHING - Written by Carroll Bryant

Every morning I awoke to the pain of another day

God I hope that the world is asleep

If not, I just hope it stays out of my way

What was I thinking?

There is this thing they call life

But I was refusing to live

Wishing that I could hold my breath forever

Repelling the suns light

I didn't want to believe in it

Green light, red light, yellow light and so

I was prepared to leave with nowhere to go 

I was down to nothing

You know it's true

Down to nothing

I was down to nothing with nothing to lose

Down to nothing

And there I was waiting for it all to end

When suddenly it hit me that it already did

And I was down to nothing

What's to believe in, if by chance, you don't even believe in yourself?

The pain is your heaven

The words are your weapon 

The heart is your living hell

What was I thinking?

There is this thing they call love

But I was refusing to give

Dreaming that I could just fly away

Stabbing my own back using my own blade

Morning time, noon time, midnight and then

I was prepared to go through it again

I was down to nothing

You know it's true

Down to nothing

I was down to nothing with nothing to prove

Down to nothing

And there I was waiting for it all to end

When suddenly I realized that it already did

And I was down to nothing

Here, there, everywhere and too blind to see

Believing that everything was just a conspiracy 

And I was down to nothing

Down to nothing

I was down to nothing

You know it's true

Down to nothing

I was down to nothing with nothing to do

Down to nothing

And there I was looking forward to the end

Much to my surprise, it already did

And I was down to nothing
