The Cosmic Pull of Nothing
Grass and hopes
Fill the empty space
What to do with nothing
With nothing all over the place
Bricks and bones
Caught in a cosmic collide
Both with tough outer shells
And a beating heart inside
Mortar and muscles
Entwines everything together
Everything needs a solid foundation
For anything to matter
Flooring and nerves
Cold tiles cause cold feet
But broken vessels and broken walls
Are cracks in plaster and hollow cheeks
Homes and hearts
Finding solitude with someone who's not yourself
That is, if you can brave the storms
And make it to the end
Hail and struggles
Tears apart shingles and dreams
Then you realize that, after all
Nothing is there but feelings
Roof and head
Feelings vs. will
What to do with nothing
When it's all you think of still
