Nothing Out There
[Verse 1]
It came from the wild, it came from the deep
Like a misunderstanding or an ancient disease
She asked what I meant, "Were you talking to me?"
I just turned from the window and the empty streets
[Chorus]
"It's not like there's something to do"
I sighed as I untied my boots
And dramatically walked out the room
Said, "Why should I care?
It's a whole lot of nothing out there"
[Verse 2]
When I was a kid, I'd sneak out after dark
In the blue hour, flying on old handlebars
I'd ride to the junkyard and talk to the stars
Dreaming of far away places in abandoned cars
[Chorus]
"Will I always be empty or numb?"
I'd yell at the red rising sun
It's been this way since I was young
And I guess I'm just scared
That it's a whole lot of nothing out there
[Bridge]
Mm
Mm
[Verse 3]
She sat on the bed, sipping her drink
Flipping through pages of some magazine
When I came back in the room, she was smiling at me
And I climbed in beside her on top of the sheets
[Chorus]
"This world can be lonely and cold"
She whispered and pulled me in close
"But the good news is you're not alone
I'm with you, I swear
It's a whole lot of nothing out there"
[Outro]
It's a whole lot of nothing out there
