Inspiration

It was 100 degrees as we sat beneath a willow tree

whose tears didn't care they just hung in the air

and refused to fall, to fall

i knew i'd made a horrible call

and now the state line felt like the Berlin wall

and there was no doubt about which side I was on



cause I built you a home in my heart with rotten wood that decayed from the start

cause you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along

no you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along



I braved treacherous streets

and kids strung out on homemade speed

and we shared a bed in which I could not sleep

at all a- woo hoo, woo hoooo oo oo hoo

'cause at night, the sun in the trees

made the skyline look like crooked teeth

in the mouth of a man who was devouring, us both

you're so cute when you're slurring your speech

but they're closing the bar and they want us to leave



and you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along

no you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along



idle war of head versus heart

it's always this way

My head is weak it always speaks

before I know what it will say



cause you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along

no you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along

there were churches, themeparks and malls

there was nothing there all along
