Nothing Else
Yearning for Transcendence
Lyrics
Nothing...
Introductory, establishing a theme of "Nothing."
I give my heart to You
Expressing a commitment, giving the heart to someone.
But I'm out of touch with You
Feeling disconnected or distant from the subject.
I can't get You off my mind
Unable to stop thinking about the person.
So I lay awake at night
Insomnia, staying awake contemplating.
Thinking 'bout how I've
Reflecting on recent selfish behavior.
I've been so selfish lately
Acknowledging recent self-centered actions.
But I'm out of alibis
Running out of excuses or justifications.
Selfish ambition
Mentioning self-centered ambition.
Walking contradiction
Describing a conflicting nature.
Living in repetition
Living a repetitive life.
Feeling like something's missing
Sensing a void or emptiness.
Knowing it's You
Realizing that the emptiness is filled by someone.
Clouded by my own judgement
Feeling unclear due to personal judgments.
But my conviction
Strong beliefs preventing a fall.
Won't let me fall
Reinforcing that the person is everything desired.
You're everything I want
Emphasizing that nothing else matters except the person.
Nothing else matters but You
Repetition for emphasis on the exclusivity of the person.
Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-I only
Expressing a desire to serve.
I only wanna serve
Reiterating the desire to serve exclusively.
Nobody but You
-I only wanna serve You
-I give my life to You
Committing the entirety of one's life to the person.
So nothing else matters
Reiteration of the exclusive importance of the person.
Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-Forgive me I keep
Admitting a struggle with control.
Controlling everything
Exerting control over everything.
I'm drowning everyday
Feeling overwhelmed and in pain.
Up to my knees in pain
-But You're all that my heart longs for
Recognizing the person as the ultimate desire.
I know You hear my prayers
Believing that prayers are heard and wanting more.
You know I want more
-If it takes eternity to get to You
Expressing determination to reach the person.
I'll keep trying til I can be with You
-You're more than life to me Jesus
Acknowledging the person's significance.
Nothing...
Reintroducing the theme of "Nothing."
Nothing else matters but You
Reaffirming the exclusive importance of the person.
Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-I only
Reiterating the desire to serve exclusively.
I only wanna serve
-Nobody but You
-I only wanna serve You
Committing the entirety of one's life to the person.
I give my life to You
Reiteration of the exclusive importance of the person.
So nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-Nothing
Repetition emphasizing wanting nothing else.
Nothing else
-I want nothing
-Nothing else
-Nothing
-Nothing else
-I want nothing
-Nothing
-I don't want nothing else
-No I don't want it
Repeating the rejection of anything else.
I don't want nothing else
-No no
-I don't want nothing else
-No I don't want it
-I don't want nothing else
-No no
Reaffirming the desire for exclusivity.
Nothing else matters but You
Reaffirming the exclusive importance of the person.
Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-Nothing else matters
-I only
Reiterating the desire to serve exclusively.
I only wanna serve
-Nobody but You
-I only wanna serve You
-I give my life to You
Committing the entirety of one's life to the person.
So nothing else matters
Reiteration of the exclusive importance of the person.
I don't want nothing else
-No I don't want it
-I don't want nothing else
Final affirmation of wanting nothing else.
