i don't believe in anything fully and i don't believe in nothing fully how does one define themself? no set ideals, no morals, no concrete idea of what the hell i'm doing. making a decision is terrifying when you don't know which side you prefer. sometimes i don't eat or sleep because i don't recognise the feelings as hunger or pain or tiredness. just white noise in the back of my mind. i am a stranger to myself. these roads i travel are blurred and fractured. giving myself an identity makes me feel like i have to be something. and all i know how to be is nothing.

unimportant thoughts from the chorus, while the main character appears to have run off stage left and left the building.
