Of all your miseries I am your favorite That deadly illusion you can't seem to quit I can see plainly your chamber *** of love is full of **** Promises you never could keep Half-truths and lies stealing my sleep Sweet Nothing, Sweet Nothing Lost in tenebrous deep Sweet Nothing, Sweet Nothing Black angels do not weep
So I jaded my heart with brass and gold Put salt into my blood to keep it cold I crushed all built with that sundering sound As I took all you loved and razed it to the ground Sweet Nothing, Sweet Nothing Your choices are your sentence Sweet Nothing, Sweet Nothing The cycle will be your penance
I rubbed shoulders with the man you dare to call yours On my way out, before I could even start closing doors Despite all my love, despite all forgiveness My soul molds black, god as my witness Sweet Nothing, Sweet Nothing As you drift off in reverie Sweet Nothing, Sweet Nothing I hope my face pains your memory
