Adding Up To Nothing by Mock Nine Lyrics
[Intro]
Loverboy was waiting kindly to get pulled into the show
Lover girl was just a little bit tired of knowing everything there is to know
[Verse 1]
He didn't think himself a problem
Just a note on a solemn door
She gave a smile, unbuttoned up her shirt and left his hands out to beg for more
She tied up your mind
But stuck to her kind
[Bridge]
Take it in stride
Or leave it all behind
Or faking up a fever
Or going to a show
Written on your timeline, a meaningless row
Risk it if you want to, or sit with your head in your knees
[Chorus]
I couldn't help if I wanted to
But it makеs me feel so low sometimes
But еven if it adds up to nothing
You don't have to take the shame
[Verse 2]
Loverboy emptied a bottle in the name of the golden calf
She laughed along with the screamin' in his eyes
In the hope that he could give her half
And she was looking for a lit cigarette just to put it on the line and see if it's all real
Well, she was feeling like a doll in the dust when she saw the reel to reel
Now she's made of the past, the one thing to last
[Verse 3]
And nothing that's real could make you feel
Like grabbing for gold, and ending up with straw
To rig it up, rig it up to an imaginary feet
Yeah, leave it to the maker
Or stand all alone on the street
[Chorus]
I couldn't help if I wanted to
But it makes me feel so cold inside
But its better than to never had nothing
You don't have to feel ashamed
