Lyrics
1/ You can tell me any tale you think I'd want to hear
But I'm sure that I've heard them all before
Your excuses are just versions of the lies you tell
Your promise is worth nothing anymore
Chorus
I wanted nothing but walk beside you
I wanted nothing but go where you go
I wanted nothing but be there when it matters
Why is nothing really all I have to show
2/ It hurts me now to think maybe there was a time
When nothing you could do would cause me pain
But you gave up everthing I ever loved you for
And nothing is the one thing that remains
Chorus
3/ Friends told me I was crazy to think you'd change
Tell me what it takes to get you on my side
I'm certain I've gone over everything we had
And nothing is the one thing that's survived
Chorus
