Nothing is…
…to build with gold bricks a fence to keep out poverty.
…to hide the surplus of milk from starving little children.
…to make weapons when the world has a lack of plows.
…to believe God is deaf because we don’t pray a sincere prayer.

Nothing is what happens when I express my discontent
Nothing is what nothing does it's quite the human habit
So I suggest if you see something to go ahead and grab it
