[Verse 1]

Once divided, nothing left to subtract

Some words when spoken can't be taken back

Walks on his own with thoughts he can't help thinkin'

Future's above, but in the past he's slow and sinkin'

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Caught a bolt of lightning

Cursed the day he let it go

[Chorus]

Nothingman, nothingman

Isn't it something? Nothingman

[Verse 2]

She once believed in every story he had to tell

One day she stiffened, took the other side

Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell

One just escapes, one's left inside the well

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And he who forgets

Will be destined to remember, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

Nothingman, nothingman

Isn't it something? Nothingman

[Bridge]

Ooh, she don't want him (She don't want him)

Oh, she won't feed him

After he's flown away

[Pre-Chorus 3]

Oh, into the sun, ah, into the sun

Burn (Burn), (Burn) burn

[Chorus]

Nothingman, nothingman

Isn't it something? Nothingman

Nothingman, nothingman

Coulda been something, nothingman

[Outro]

Uh, uh-oh-oh-oh

Uh-oh-oh-oh
