We Are Nothing

II am careless, I am hopeless, I am nothing
(I) carry my cross and try to shine, (I) keep on failing

(But) There’s something in your eyes
Tells me not to cry
Something in your eyes…
There’s something in your eyes
Tells me not to die
Something in your eyes…
… Keeps me alive


(You) tell me to fight, tell me to grow, words are nothing
Give me some love, give me some grace, (it) keeps me going

(But) There’s something in your eyes
Tells me not to cry
Something in your eyes…
There’s something in your eyes
Tells me not to die
Something in your eyes…
… Keeps me alive


Look at the earth, look at the stars, we are nothing
How we forgot where we came from, (it) keeps me thinking

(But) There’s something in your eyes
Tells me not to cry
Something in your eyes…
There’s something in your eyes
Tells me not to die
Something in your eyes…
… Keeps me alive…
