Something About Nothing

On the brink of something
This is about nothing
It's not about you or her
I write this because I don't have it

What it takes to say
What I want to tell them
Not fully sure what that is
Just vague ideas floating around in my brain

I can't formulate them
Mind can't encapsulate them
Can't think of what to say
Forever I'll write about nothing

My thoughts stay on the same thing
Sadness for when you leave me
Repetition about nothing
Gotta write this about something

There's still a lot more room
To address concern for you
Those words that I can't write
Instead I'll write this pointless rhyme tonight

Never gonna say it
Won't have the chance to play it
For you tonight 'cause you are right
Convictions I can't summarize in song

I can't formulate them
Mind can't encapsulate them
Can't think of what to say
Forever I'll write about nothing

My thoughts stay on the same thing
Sadness for when you leave me
Repetition about nothing
Gotta write this about something

And when you talk to me
We speak of brilliant things
The evade me somehow
Before I get a chance to put them down

And if they come right back to me
Thoughts constantly escaping me
I'm missing clarity
Lacking pride to say what I want to

I can't formulate them
Mind can't encapsulate them
Can't think of what to say
Forever I'll write about nothing

My thoughts stay on the same thing
Sadness for when you leave me
Repetition about nothing
Gotta write this about something

Gotta write this about something
