lyrics

Something or Nothing V 2

Believe or not
You choose the cost
From a spinning coin to tornado dice
When you fight
You pick your side
And that’s all you do

It does no good
Win or lose
An imitator or the Avant Garde
Estranged par,
A life apart
So just change the tune


Don’t just stand square
Balancing on a fence
Or play cowboys on the road
Without a show
And it takes some time to fend the thought
Are we better off alone?


Believe in hope and dreams and every struggle in between
Believe in morals, kings and peasants and monotony
… Struggles, strife and wishes of an idle life
… Abraham Lincoln, he never told a lie

Believe in love and hate and tattoos that define those names
Believe in pride and shame (they’re both) and treat imposters just the same
Believe in Karma, Love or the mind you chose to think them up
Believe in whatever fills your cup

Believe in faith and god and the stubbornness of broken chords
… battles, wars and jungles where the dead are lost
… shackles, chains, circumstance and bad mistakes
… something or nothing
