Nothing's Working

Absolutely nothing

Nothing for to show

She’s feeling helpless

Like there’s nowhere left to go

Things she set out to do

She made sure were done

She’s feeling dismal

But she’s not the only one

Take time to listen to the quiet ones

Watch how the pain lives

Underneath the skin

Forgotten words and lost

Love won’t make the grade

On a lonesome journey

Tryin’ to stay high

Put another coin in and

Stop to wave goodbye

Praying to the hologram

High up in the sky

Is it for justice or is it just for the crime

Take time to listen to the quiet ones

Watch how the pain lives

Underneath the skin

Forgotten words and lost

Love won’t make the grade

Killers on the TV

Writing on the wall

How could such a kind heart

Take such a heavy fall

Absolutely nothing

Nothing for to show

Heart and guts against the wind

And nowhere left to go

Take time to listen to the lonely ones

Watch how the rain gives

Up a chance to swim

Burn the broken bridges and

We’ll build them up again
