I stand in the sun and look up
I see the moon there like a little tin cup
I walk to the store and see a couple fighting
I think to myself love looks so inviting
I get a call from my baby brother
And get ready for another disappointment
Cuz in my mind I've already decided
He's a selfish deriding fool
So I pick up the phone and that's exactly what I get
I decide that I was right and this I'll never let him forget
But the only truth that really is there
Is that I decided it would be that way
So who's surprised
Nothing means anything
Except for what you make it
My Mother gets mad and yells at me on the phone
And that's why I'd rather just be alone
But again the only thing that really is there
Is that from what happened I got really scared
I thought well I've got to protect myself
I've got to worry about maintaining my health
So maybe I'm never gonna take no people's calls no more
And at best I'm gonna build some kind of wall around my heart so it will never again be sore
But this is all just meaning I have added
It gives me something that I am addicted to
Meanwhile I've lost my brother my mother and my self
It's cost me my happiness my love and my health
Nothing means anything
Except for what you make it
Nothing means anything
And that means you're free to do anything
So go outside or don't
Do you see a difference cuz I certainly don't
Is there a God above well we don't know
If you choose there to be well then there you go
Cuz we're not on this planet Earth for too long
You might as well fill your heart and soul with a song
Of love and help and health and joyfulness and laughter
Cuz that's all this skin and bones really is after
So go outside or don't
Is there any difference oh no no no
Cuz nothing means anything and that means nothing
And that means you're free to do anything
