Nothing Means Nothing
Nothing means nothing
I told you this once
But that was long ago
You probably don't remember
I told you not to get caught up in the dark like me
Because I didn't want you to suffer as I did
I never wanted to lose you
But it's too late for that now
If there was some way I could have saved you
I swear I would have
Because you left much too soon
Though I told you not to let words get to you
You didn't listen to me
I tried to warn you
Words of wisdom mean nothing to you
I couldn't stop that dagger to your heart
I couldn't stop that bullet to your head
But I know you're here with me
I can always feel your breath on my neck
Although it pains me to see your past struggle
So tell me
Tell me
Why did you have to leave so soon?
