Everything To Nothing

from Mitchel Evan by Mitchel Evan

lyrics

I was on time for once in my life, I had a place of my own
We could get by on coffee grinds and avocado toast

There was art on the wall and paint on the floor and alcohol in the mini-cooler
I don’t judge and I called it sober but I would’ve been better off drunk

She would twirl her natural curls in the fishnets she had on
I would watch from a shadowy spot where no one would notice

I charmed my way and took someone’s place,
I reckon there’s a lot of different roles I played
I was on time and I made her mine and that’s all I let her know

She was everything until she was nothing
She was everything until she was gone

I got lost in the parking lot, the nurse said I shouldn’t smoke so much
But I never needed to burn one up as much as I did in that moment

I was on time in the waiting line, the ER sign said one at a time
I could tell she was terrified so I told her shitty jokes

They wheeled you off and I bit my tongue,
Kissed your mouth and called my mom

Paced the floor and cursed the Lord,
I said, “You better know what you’re doing!”

She was everything until she was nothing
She was everything until she was gone
So much for integrity, I guess I was bluffing
She was everything until she was gone

Until she was
Until she was
Until she was gone…

Sometimes, child, it’s futile asking why instead of how
I never knew what to say or do but I don’t have to now

She was everything until she was nothing
She was everything until she was gone
So much for my honesty, I guess I was bluffing
She was everything until she was Not

Everything to nothing
Everything to nothing
Everything to nothing
Everything to nothing
