I saw the world, it was beautiful But the rain got in and ruined it all Then I tried to be invisible It was impossible Even for me I laughed at love It was a big mistake In the absence of I filled it with hate Cause there's no such thing as nothing Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all I had the brains not to think at all But the rain got in And I thought too hard On the world, and as usual I slumped too far into the void I tried to make everything meaningless But the rain got in and made it a mess Cause there's no such thing as nothing Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all Yeah there's no such thing as nothing But my finger's on the trigger And I'll turn off the world So what gives me the right To think that I could throw away a life? Even mine And what makes you believe That you could get away with getting old? Overlapping me Maybe to lose or to save your soul Is a choice of how you fill the hole And the rain got in Cause there's no such thing as nothing Yeah there's no such thing as nothing at all There's no such thing as nothing But my finger's on the trigger And I'll turn off the world

No Such Thing by Chris Cornell
