Nothing Matters

Simeon Coxe III

[Verse 1]
It all began with a roll of thunder
A soleless sunder
It's no wonder time stood still
The air was quiet, a breathless riot
Of nothing stirring and the chariot of time
No modern rings, no rustle
No scurrying, no flutter
No chirp, nor ruff
No bark, nor roar, no crow
No low, no deafening roar
No sound to tell the tale

[Chorus]
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
(Wait)

[Verse 2]
It hung in space, a weightless glow
The dust of mist and rain and cloud
Trees and hail and snow and dirt
Fog and ruck and flesh and sand
Bone but useless in it's form
No reason for it's roar
No closet for it's soul
It hung undone, unwound, unsung
Open ended out
Unnecessary, wasted

[Chorus]
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
(Wait)

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
When it arrived no tumpets blared
No horns declared the presence of
What all it feared would drive the world apart
No bowing trees, no rolling hills
No mountain clips
No movement of all things to stay alive
Dawn never came
No warming breath, no morning air
No gentle rays of red and orange to greet the coming day

[Chorus]
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
(Wait)

[Outro]
Nothing to prove, your soul's on fire
No choice of voice, a midnight choir
Of all the blue when lights new wire
The past is cast when stars align
Drop out without a single clue
Beware, prepare, this rendezvous
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing to do but wait
(Wait, wait, wait)
