The Nameless

Why is nothing always nothing? When you refuse to stand for something Promises to yourself are the worst ones to break Nihilism is a prison Nothing is led without vision You better have passion carved into your grave Don't shoot the messenger The power in my words is the sting of discomfort Don't be another number Just waiting to expire, the nameless never prosper You can't lead a lamb to water You know they'll be dragged to slaughter Worship and praise is all done in vain When your oath leads to moral decay Worship and praise is all done in vain Leading to moral decay (Decay, decay, decay) Worship and praise is all done in vain When your oath leads to moral decay You can't feel the pulse of anything For you have lost touch with everything Everything was meaningless 'til everything became nothing And nothing gave me everything Chasing the wind You're chasing the wind Thriving begins the moment you face your own self The guilt is choking you out Chasing the wind Chasing the wind Can you fall asleep with pride Or will you slip away thinking you have done just enough to survive?
