I see the red but nothing happens I look up, but I can't do that I pinch myself, it didn't hurt I'm not dreaming, am I? I look outside, the neighbor's wall's too white It stung my eyes, I thought I'd cry Good thing I didn't, or they'll ask why Please don't ask why I turn the faucet on, nothing flows I know I paid the bills I'd pay the bills twice if I had to I just need the faucet to work I took a bath, the water's nice I don't have a bath tub though I wish I did, so I could see How my sins would turn the water opaque Let the water fall I heard there's a waterfall Somewhere there's a waterfall I need to get there I see the black but nothing happens.

reaching a point of feeling complete emptiness; you feel nothing but ironically you feel so **** sad at the same time; you’d like to cry but you just couldn’t
