lyrics

Little boy blue, don't you play too rough with your new toy
if you touch her, she'll break and her blood is so annoying
don't you like to watch, much like a shadow lost in the shade?
Make her, you'll unmake her, but you'd rather be unmade

Oh
It's not my place to interfere, my dear
Oh, no
Will you embrace me and erase my fear?
Woah
Wipe me out like a stain, with a grin I will hang from your string
And by your judgment of my merit I'll inherit nothing

Nothing is what I deserve
Nothing is what I have earned
If nothing is what you have chosen to give me
Then nothing is for what I yearn
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters
Nothing never breaks, busts, bends, rusts, upends or shatters.

I've never had a weakness that couldn't be destroyed
And I've never had a sinful thought that couldn't be avoided
Control your temper, control your language, or anguish in languid soul
It's what you were born to do, but you'd rather be controlled

Oh
I just presumed that you'd refuse me
Oh, no
Excuse this common fool his crudity
Woah
Break this wild horse, I will not fight, 'cause of course I would win
And I'd much rather give in and bare it all 'till I inheret nothing

Nothing is what I deserve
Nothing is what I have earned
If nothing is what you have chosen to give me
Then nothing is for what I yearn
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters
Nothing never breaks, busts, bends, rusts, upends or shatters.

I must obey the order, for I've order to restore
Each circuit sends a signal to the process in the core
and if none of this means anything than what's my anger for?
I'd rather be most anything, the dirt under your heel my king,
a peasant or a pauper, or a knight in shining armor
what's required of your noble steed? Through your direction I am freed
and neigh I say! I wont stand in the way of what you have decreed for-

Nothing is what I deserve
Nothing is what I have earned
If nothing is what you have chosen to give me
Then nothing is for what I yearn
Nothing lasts forever, nothing really matters
Nothing never breaks and nothing never shatters.
