Nothing Without You

I mope around like a ghost in a maze
Los Angeles is my cage in a haze
I'm singing all of your praises
My martini glass glazes
I recall our little trip in the fall
Listening to you discuss
Les Fleurs du Mal
The truth of your brute impact
On my cadence
Looking for a clue in habitual phrases

I'm nothing without you
A rocket unfueled
The absence of glory
A movie with no story
I'm nothing without you
A train derailed
Unused potential
A vision gone stale

Chasing a dream
That wasn't chasing me
Tracing a memory
That can't be seen
Selling my jaded hours for payment
Protocol broken
To welcome derangement
Crawling through
All the dark places
Looking for wisdom
In the smallest of faces
Let's kick it like sonic thieves
In the thicket
You stole a lick from a source so wicked

I'm nothing without you
A rocket unfueled
The absence of glory
A movie with no story
I'm nothing without you
A train derailed
Unused potential
A vision gone stale

Why does a bright infinity
End so quickly
It doesn't make sense
According to physics
But then again
Nothing makes sense
So we decided
To sit on the fence
And rap some nonsense
About our lives in present tense
I'm nothing without you
