Nothing (with You)

Lyrics

[Verse 1, Gumi, Gumi & Jamie Paige] "Don't you want to feel seen? Don't you want to be heard? You can be complete, in a single word" That's the thing they say, that's the point of view In a single word, that is all of you But ain't it plain to see that it's all for show? Just a snide appeal to the status quo You can be much more than a catchy tune But if it don't sell well, they don't want that 'you' [Pre-Chorus 1: Gumi] So is it worth it in the end To close your eyes and make pretend That you can find your satisfaction in a brand? [Chorus 1: Gumi & Jamie Paige, Gumi, Jamie Paige] I wanna be nothing with you A thing that can't be viewed No careful, meaningful design Not easily reduced We'll be an idea, not the truth Not somеthing you can prove Subliminal, invisible Unthinkable, anеw I wanna be nothing with you And make the world confused No holding up to scrutiny Impossibly obtuse And maybe folk will call us mistaken Try to fit us into a station But I'd rather be a phantom Than a fucking target group (I wanna be nothing) (I wanna be-) [Verse 2: Gumi] Maybe you're convinced that it's really true And the man up top really does see you But it all falls flat experientially Capital don't care unless it means money [Pre-Chorus 2] But is it worth it in the end To close our eyes and make pretend Our love's a thing that they could ever understand? [Chorus 2: Jamie Paige, Gumi] (I wanna be nothing) Why don't you be nothing with me? A gentle force unseen So ultraviolet, infrared We'll live beyond belief Unstring all the ties and guarantees To be with everything We'll write the words our stories tell And take them under wing (I wanna be-) So come and be nothing with me All red and gold and green Our peace of mind is undefined Empyrean, obscene And maybe folk will try to define us Through some definition, divide us But they'll never truly hide us If they don't know what we mean [Bridge: Jamie Paige] (I wanna be nothing) (I wanna be-) (I wanna be-) (I wanna be-) [Outro: Gumi] We'll be nothing in the end A form that no one comprehends But I am real, and you're real And we're something real again And so it's worth it in the end To close our eyes, and to transcend We'll do our best to dodge the real and play pretend
