Song#: 25
Album 06) Wondering about Death
Name of Song: Nothingness
What are we afraid of,
It’s nothing there to hold,
Nothing to fall back on,
Vacuums are so cold.
We humans like our stuff,
We like to own it too,
We like to know it’s there for us
As it gives us things to do.
If we had to just be there,
With God and self alone,
A vacuum full of nothingness,
No one to talk or phone.
Chorus
Nothingness is eerie,
Alone and out in space,
Alone and no one else around,
Not any human trace.
Nothingness is eerie,
Alone and out in space,
Alone and no one else around,
Not any human trace.

Being there confronting,
Those things you cannot face,
They’ll all be with you when you die,
A truth you won’t escape.
