Analysis of Everything Is Nothing



Everything is wrong
nothing is right,
we cant get through a
day without a fight!

Nothing is new,
everything is old,
it wont be new until
you get the gold.

You have been in the
hospital, you have been
in a fight.

What is it gonna take
for one peaceful night?
I guess it is true nothing
is right.

Why dont you listen?
why dont you learn?

We are here to help you,
not to watch you burn!
