Verse 1
I was sixteen, staring at the ceiling
Trying to find a god that I could believe in
But the silence never answered back
Just my voice echoing in the black
They said “go work, give your life a meaning”
But it felt like something I was just repeating
All the rules that they hand you down
Start to break when there’s no one around
Pre-Chorus
And I’ve been thinking all these years
If nothing’s true, then why the tears?
Chorus
If nothing matters, why do I feel this much?
Why does it break me when I lose your touch?
I don’t believe in heaven or a grand design
But I believe when you’re right here in mine
Maybe life’s just passing through
But it means something when I’m with you
Verse 2
All the money, all the expectations
They don’t quiet down the hesitation
When you’re lying awake at night
Wondering if any of it’s right
They say we’re small in a dying galaxy
No one’s coming, no one’s asking me
So what’s the point of it anyway
If it all just fades to grey?
Pre-Chorus
Yeah I’ve let go of what they said
But I can’t shake you from my head
Chorus
If nothing matters, why do I feel this much?
Why does it break me when I lose your touch?
I don’t believe in angels watching from the sky
But I believe when I look in your eyes
Maybe life’s just passing through
But it means something when I’m with you
Bridge (soft → powerful)
Maybe there’s no reason, no perfect plan
Just a beating heart reaching out for a hand
If everything’s fading, if nothing stays
Why do you light up my darkest days?
Final Chorus (big, emotional)
If nothing matters, I’ll make this count
Every second your name leaves my mouth
I don’t need forever, I don’t need proof
If I’ve got one thing, I’ve got you
Maybe life’s just passing through
But it means everything… when I’m with you
