I see
I laugh
Because the way to be
Is to be something that you aren't
Maybe
That's cool for everyone else
But I would rather be nothing
If I can't be myself

Flowers on a wall
My head is in the clouds
But my feet are on the ground
Sending down roots
So whatever storm
I can weather
Be it pain of loss
Or growth of ego

And I'm the greatest
The greatest
Nothing at all
I'm the greatest at being nothing at all

But as long as I can smile
As long as I can love
As long as I have hope
There's no valley low enough
To keep me from reaching a mountaintop
From taking my next step

And I want to see the stars
From the mountaintop
I want you to see the stars
While your by me side
Smiling and laughing
Just being

And I'm the greatest
The greatest
Or nothing at all
I'm the greatest at being nothing at all

And I'll be happy
If you are nothing with me
If you can just be
Just be with me
