Everything and Nothing Songtext
von Mudvayne

We swallow your spit
Steal acceptance, lend denial
Telling me that my life is free and boundless
Then I′m forced to stay between the lines
They construct death to demolish life
We plant the seeds to harvest loss
Found empty truth is full of lies
Lies
Lies
Lies

We're hoping for despair
Starvation′s gluttony
Subtle chaotic peace
War divided unity
Pro-life, pro-choice
Blinded insight
Left wing, right wing
Black, white
Leaders following


I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing

Stop fucking with me
I'm the accused, I'm not the enemy
You′re so confused
No way you could enlighten me
No freedom trapped in slavery
Deceitful honesty
Muthafucking human not a machine

Stop fucking with me
I′m the accused, I'm not the enemy
You′re so confused
No way you could enlighten me
No freedom trapped in slavery
Deceitful honesty
Muthafucking human not a machine


It's all right to be afraid (Lay your hands upon me)
But sometimes that′s what it takes for us to change
No power before the blacks and grays that shade our fate
They shape our lives in constrictive space (In search of answers inviting)
And hope prays we'll count the days
Then we play our life like it′s some kind of fucking game
Point your finger at them (Constant struggle inside me)
And we'll all be the ones to assert the blame
So sorry you'll be the one to absorb the tears
Your fears, the loss is stacked up like you carried bricks for years
You put your life on the line against the fate of time
(Guide me through this nothing that′s everything)
Praying for the end of time
Praying for the end of time
Praying for the end of time

I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing
I am everything
I am nothing

Stop fucking with me
I′m the accused, I'm not the enemy
You′re so confused
No way you could enlighten me
No freedom trapped in slavery
Deceitful honesty
Muthafucking human not a machine

Stop fucking with me
I'm the accused, I′m not the enemy
You're so confused
No way you could enlighten me
No freedom trapped in slavery
Deceitful honesty
Muthafucking human not a machine
