lyrics

I don't believe in anything, no I don't.
I don't believe in anything - not even me.
It's hard to see the light
when you close your eyes tight.
So no I don't and no I won't
believe in anything.

I am afraid of everything, yes I am.
I am afraid of everything, including love.
As much as I want tonight
to wrap you up and call you mine,
I just can't move one inch towards you.
I am so afraid.

When I open my mouth words do come out
but my conviction is lost.
I started this whole thing to jumpstart my heartstrings
but I am so ambivalent.
I am apathetic but refuse to quit.

My mind is a chaos, warzone, conflict.
My mind is a chaos, warzone - because I have
10,000 thoughts per second, spanning human eternal tides
from the books I've read to the things I've said.
What's a girl to do?

Every question answered is another 50 questions
leading up to nothing but the fleeting quench of satisfaction,
leading to neurosis, leading to epiphany, leading to depression dark and deep.
'Til I pick myself back up again,
'til I close my eyes and start again
I cannot get through.
I just wanna be a part of something true.
