The weight feels heavier every day 
Pushing down on my will to contribute anything 
These chords and these words on a paper that will end up under the couch are proof that I am something 
 
And some say something is better than nothing when nothing was something we never wanted to be in the first place 
These footprints felt below are enough to let me know that without me this dirt would have never moved 
 
We used to dream of our older days, but at some point it wasted away 
Replaced with memories of our dead friends and a want of a means 
To an end 
 
Something is better than nothing when nothing was something we never wanted to be in the first place
