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
