Sometimes I Feel Like Nothing

As the broken sleep
Death forgot to thank me when I set her free
Come empty and you won’t need anything
Believe in your own blood until your heart stops beating
And then, you too will be set free
Tear down your towers and build bridges
Your god is a fraud if you wrote the mission
And the devil will die when he has no witness
I’m not broken, I am nothing
I’m the vessel, not the poison
And I didn’t want to lose you, but sometimes I forget
When my prayers feel like they’re just cigarettes
They’ll take the headache away, then turn to ash
And they bring me back to life every time I find a new light
But then they bring up my past
And I fall further and further and further
Until I’m afraid to get back up because I don’t want to fall again
And I never thought I would be the one to fall in love
And I also never thought I’d be the one
The one to call it off
But if there’s one thing I know about myself
It’s that I don’t know anything about myself
'Cause you were nothing than a choice I had to choose
A tool I had to use
My favorite drug and my favorite excuse
And my hands are not clean, maybe they never will be
But they can still carry you home when you’re ready to sleep
And the only reason the devil’s alive in you and me
Is because we disrupted him when he tried to fall asleep
