All About Nothing

from This Land by Whetherman

/

lyrics

Who am I to decide
What my life will design?
When I've never been an architect
Nor a builder of sorts
But I can tear down anything
If I forget what I stand for

And I've got an inkling
I've traced it 32 years back
I know all about nothing
I know all about that
I'm having a real hard time
Picking out solid lines
To stick to and refine
To make them only mine

All of my life
I've gone where the wind blew me
I pushed off when it shook me
I held on when it moved me
I got high if it took me
Then rolled on when it wasn't for me

And I've got an inkling
I've traced it 32 years back
I know all about nothing
I know all about that
I'm having a real hard time
Picking out solid lines
To stick to and refine
To make them only mine

I've discovered you can muster
Many fields of golden luster
But it's not just you
Making you do what you do...

And I've got an inkling
I've traced it 32 years back
I know all about nothing
I know all about that
I'm having a real hard time
Picking out solid lines
To stick to and refine
To make them only mine
