lyrics

HERE’S THE BURNING QUESTION HANGING IN THE AIR I BREATHE
IT’S AN OBJECT LESSON, OBVIOUS TO ALL BUT ME
LIKE THE TIME YOU TOLD YOUR STORY
AND I FILTERED ALL THE DARK STUFF OUT
‘CAUSE I WANTED YOU AT THAT MOMENT
DIDN’T KNOW YOUR WHISPER WAS A SHOUT

WHY DO I MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING?
BUILD IT UP, TEAR IT DOWN
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

IN THE MORNING, WHEN I COME DOWN
TRY TO DIG OUT OF THE RUIN
THERE’S THAT BURNING QUESTION
TAKE A DRINK AND THEN I ASK MYSELF

WHY DO I MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING?
BUILD IT UP, TEAR IT DOWN
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

WHY DO I MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING?
BUILD IT UP, TEAR IT DOWN
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

PULLING STARS TO THE GROUND
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

I LEAVE WHEN YOU COME AROUND
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

NEVER WRITE, NEVER CALL
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

YOU BUILD A BRIDGE, I BUILD A WALL
MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING

OH WHY DO I MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING?
OH WHY DO I MAKE NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING?

HERE’S THE BURNING QUESTION
HANGING IN THE AIR I BREATHE
