Next to Nothing Lyrics

Album: Doomsday

The throat is opened and the words they fall like rain

but when I search for the sense I find it’s all the same.

I got no shield to hide behind,

I am to blame…

but you cannot stop talking,

can’t stop the chicain!

I can only believe the truth that I know.

I can only trust in you when I know you.

I can only tell the news if I know some

and so sometimes I feel confused

‘bout the way you’re talking!

Can you go on pretending that your life’s o.k.?

Mega-communication means prostitution anyway!

With your behaviour you will never reach the sun.

Didn’t no one ever tell you that silence is the golden one?

You want everyone to think

you’re sweet, handsome, too nice.

- Just a flat character –

there’ll be no surprise!

But one day the others will wake

and everyone will see

that it is a sign of idiocy –

the boring life you lead.

I know there’s a time for you –

the seconds when you die.

Pretending everybody’s happy is the final lie!

I am sitting in a vault

got noone to talk to

feeling the soul assault

of bitterness and loneliness

And that is the other side of me…

My attitude is silence

but it’s no art of life

is it a kind of consequence

or the child I am inside?

I think it is another wrong way!

Every time I wake up I wish

I would still be asleep

and I know something is wrong with this

but these dreams are so deep!

What can reality do for me,

for I don’t know

what real things mean to me

and I don’t know how to exist

in this everchanging sea.

I don’t think you can save me

with telling the Olymp! –

You ain’t sacrifice yourself,

you’re just doing din!

Your words seem to be a kind of excuse –

but I’m sorry, honey, that is food that I refuse!

Don’t talk to me of hatred

when you don’t know the meaning.

Don’t talk to me of love

when you don’t know that feeling.

You ever speak your mind

when it’s time to think –

for you communication has the

meaning of another drink!

I won’t like to write you postcards

or letters in the sand.

I won’t like to kiss a hundred lips

or even to give you my hand.

I don’t like to put my arms

around everyone I see –

‘cause I do not believe the whole world’s one family!

Sometimes it is better not to say anything.

Sometimes it is better to leave me in the state I’m in.

But you care for everyone and everything

and then there’s nothing special and nothing to win!!!
