Nothing
Unveiling the Depths: Gary Jules' Nothing Holds a Mirror to Life's Enigma
Lyrics
There was no fortune to be made here.
There were no financial gains to be achieved in this place.
It's just a town like any other town.
It's an ordinary town without any unique qualities.
Sure there must be good things left to say.
While there might be positive aspects to talk about, the speaker can't think of any.
Can't think of one so, I won't say.
Unable to identify a single positive thing to say, so choosing to remain silent.
Nothing wears a pretty face in armor.
Emphasizing that emptiness or lack of value can appear attractive on the surface.
She got, shine at the surface, coal below
Describing something beautiful externally but with a dark or undesirable quality beneath the surface.
Nothing, please don't tell me, I...
Pleading with "Nothing" not to reveal information because the speaker already knows there's emptiness.
Already know...nothing.
Reiterating the theme of emptiness or lack of substance.
Living like a mobile spinning off its line.
Comparing life to a malfunctioning machine, spinning uncontrollably.
Phillip always said about the wheels within wheels.
Referring to intricate and complicated aspects of life, possibly implying hidden complexities.
Tension rising higher it's coming through my window.
Feeling the pressure and stress intensifying, invading personal space.
And no I seem to feel?
Expressing uncertainty or confusion about the emotions experienced.
'Cause nothing, please don't tell me, I already know.
Reiterating the plea for ignorance about the emptiness as the speaker is already aware.
Nothing, oh it's getting better now, but time will show.
Acknowledging improvement, but hinting at the inevitability of time revealing the true nature of emptiness.
Nothing, never goes away.
Stating that emptiness or nothingness persists.
Nothing, never goes away.
Repeating the idea that nothing ever disappears or changes.
Tonight I saw her again.
Describing an encounter with emptiness or a symbolic figure.
A blood red luna sitting on the bridge.
Depicting a vivid scene with a red moon, suggesting intensity or warning.
It could've been a sign but I don't believe in signs.
Considering a possible sign but expressing disbelief in signs or symbols.
I don't believe in...
Rejecting belief in something.
Nothing, please don't tell me, I,
Repeating the plea not to reveal emptiness since the speaker is already aware.
Already know.
Emphasizing the speaker's preexisting knowledge of emptiness.
Nothing, oh it's getting easier.
Indicating that dealing with emptiness is becoming easier.
But time will show.
Suggesting that time will eventually expose the reality behind the facade of improvement.
Nothing, she's got brand new set of reasons why.
Referring to a new set of justifications for holding onto emptiness or nothingness.
She can't let it go.
Stating that she cannot let go of the emptiness.
Nothing please don't tell me.
Reiterating the plea for ignorance about emptiness, given the speaker's existing awareness.
I already know...nothing.
Reaffirming the knowledge of nothingness or emptiness.
