Everything and Nothing
Gone, I’m gone
I packed up
Left most everything I love in my past
Might get some letters
And a friend or two will last
Time takes time
When all I have is memories and doubts
That I can’t stand
And when everything I own is in my hands
It’s all it seems
And it means everything and nothing to me
Walk, I walk, I roam
I try to find a place where I won’t be alone
It’s almost dark, my heart’s in desperate need of something
As I work, I work hard
Waiting, hoping, knowing
Something’s coming
All the while
I keep hold foolishly
To all the things that could have been
It’s all it seems
And it means everything and nothing to me
Back there I knew my spot, my place
My life was free of danger
Here I’m just an unknown face
In 300 million strangers
Yeah I’m lost don’t know where I’m going
Yeah I miss the comfort of knowing
Yeah thought home is what I am longing
I will not die wondering
It’s all it seems
And it means everything and nothing to me
