From the recording Songs Are Songs
Lyrics
On the brink of something
This is about nothing
It's not about you or her
I write this because I don't have it
What it takes to say
What I want to tell them
Not fully sure what that is
Just vague ideas floating around in my brain
I can't formulate them
Mind can't encapsulate them
Can't think of what to say
Forever I'll write about nothing
My thoughts stay on the same thing
Sadness for when y ou leave me
Repition about nothing
Gotta write this about something
There's still a lot more room
To address concern for you
Those words that I can't write
Instead I'll write this pointless rhyme tonight
Never gonna say it
Won't have the chance to play it
For you tonight 'cause you are right
Convictions I can't summarize in song
And when you talk to me
We speak of brilliant things
The evade me somehow
Before I get a chance to put them down
And if they come right back to me
Thoughts constantly escaping me
I'm missing clarity
Lacking pride to say what I want to
