Edge of Nothing

Slipping off the edge of nothing,

You cough and watch my hands caress her hair

You stare, and then you swear

You're waiting for

Something

Slipping of the edge of nothing

I dreamed I was a monk,

Cold stone, statue of bone,

Wild storm billows and blows

And I sit alone

Smiling with rain pouring down my side

It's gone when I open my eyes

It's gone when I open my eyes

Oh nothing

Nothing lasts forever

Black is not a color

But it looks so good on you

Oh nothing

Nothing lasts forever

Time doesn't run out

Only people do

Call it take two

Slipping of the edge of nothing

The poets dead and it's all in my head,

We're lying in our beds and we're waiting for,

Something

Slipping off the edge of nothing

I dreamed I was her home

Woke up, wished I'd grown

God, I should've known

That I sit alone, I sit alone, I sit alone, I

Oh nothing

Nothing lasts forever

Black is not a color

But it looks so good on you

Oh nothing

Nothing lasts forever

Time doesn't run out

Only people do

And you

Oh nothing

Nothing lasts forever

Black is not a color

But it looks so good on you

Oh nothing

Nothing lasts forever

Time doesn't run out

Only people do

And you
