Great Nothing

Looking half a stranger
In the puddles on the pavement
Run the tightrope, flirt with danger
No man's land is where I'm safest
I've been in this game for ages
Never noticed you were playing
Making rules up as you go

Why couldn't you just keep it hidden?

If it isn't broke, don't fix it
When you wanted more, I didn't
Now we will never find our way back to where we were
The great nothing, great nothing

Kicking stones at car doors
Walking home and feeling nauseous
That I didn't see it coming
Couldn't talk you down from jumping
Both feet first, I never wanted all we had to turn so toxic
To sting worse from every promise
Ruined us by being honest

If it isn't broke, don't fix it
When you wanted more, I didn't
Now we will never find our way back to where we were
The great nothing, great nothing

Mmm, I'll always miss the way it was
Why couldn't you just keep it hidden?

If it isn't broke, don't fix it
When you wanted more, I didn't
Now we will never find our way back to where we were
The great nothing, great nothing
Great nothing, great nothing
