I Got Nothing

I got nothing
There's no sense in looking back
All my yesterdays went up in flames
Now I'm gonna
Just forget what's in the past
I don't even recognize their names

Two undiscarded lives, a simple proposition
Every day a little pain
Survival's up to me, since every time I
Open my eyes the world remains

I got nothing (got nothing)
Too bad (too bad)
But I'm happy 'cause that's all I have (that's all I have)
I got nothing (got nothing)
They want (they want)
No false dreaming, my pride's ripped apart

Looking out their windows from their easy chairs
I can see they think they got it beat
They just see a drifter in some worn-out clothes
Not someone that is so good to meet

I'm more ashamed of them than what I'm wearing
Not reaching past their window ledge
There's a view of life that we're not sharing
'Cause they won't walk out to the edge

I got nothing (got nothing)
Too bad (too bad)
But I'm happy 'cause that's all I have (that's all I have)
I got nothing (got nothing)
They want (they want)
No false dreaming, my pride's ripped apart

Two undiscarded lives, a simple proposition
Every day a little pain
Survival's up to me, since every time I
Open my eyes the world remains

I got nothing (got nothing)
Too bad (too bad)
But I'm happy 'cause that's all I have (that's all I have)
I got nothing (got nothing)
They want (they want)
No false dreaming, my pride's ripped apart

I got nothing (got nothing)
Too bad (too bad)
I got nothing (got nothing and I don't feel bad)
Too bad
I got nothing
Too bad
I got nothing
Too bad
