I am everything and I am nothing a tightrope of tension between us I can't breathe, my chest a furnace all of these words spilling out of me black smoke in my eyes you are everything and you are nothing a sidewalk to the dead end you can't backtrack now I'm siezing on the floor but you're just counting how many times my body jumps like pain is a contest and you're the referee as you stare down at me I can feel it I can feel it the hand of God against my throat everything. nothing.

Everything and Nothing
I am everything and I am nothing a tightrope of tension between us I can't breathe, my chest a furnace all of these words spilling out of me black smoke in my eyes you are everything and you are nothing a sidewalk to the dead end you can't backtrack now I'm siezing on the floor but you're just counting how many times my body jumps like pain is a contest and you're the referee as you stare down at me I can feel it I can feel it the hand of God against my throat everything. nothing.
