Something About Nihilism

You don't talk about
The way you make me feel
In your brother's house
You're trying to tell me that nothing is real

You speak of time passing by
Like there's not a spark in your eye
We're nothing more that relative minds
Just trying to find dark in light

So what am I supposed to do when you lean in and tell me something
You know I won't understand?
I formulate something to say so you wouldn't think of the last time I asked you to stay

You don't think about
The world in the same way
I can live without knowing a meaning
But I'd like to know your mind

So what am I supposed to do when you lean in and tell me something
You know I won't understand?
I formulate something to say so you wouldn't think of the last time I asked you to stay

I won't forget what I'm told
I just want to learn from your brain
The things you have spoken before
Aren't all that I want to remain

So what am I supposed to do when you lean in and tell me something
You know I won't understand?
I formulate something to say so you wouldn't think of the last time I asked you to stay

The world doesn't work that way
