Lyrics Nellie McKay

Nellie McKay

I Am Nothing

You, traffic on the line

Strangers all around

Nothing here but time

I don't see a sound

Floating high above

Every little town

People who can love

Please don't leave me now

I am nothing

Please don't leave me out

I am nothing

You, coursing through my veins

Pulsing every pound

Panic on parade

Cutting through the crowd

Music fills my brain

I know I let you down

Take me back again

Please don't leave me now

I am nothing

Please don't leave me out

I am nothing

You, footsteps on the floor

Do they make a sound

Open up the door

Please don't leave me now
