BLOODLINE ZERO - Nothing Was Written For Us

Merci pour votre écoute / Thank you for listening / Grazie per l’ascolto LYRICS I searched the sky for evidence A sentence in the stars Some hidden architecture That could tell me who we are I thought the constellations Might be pointing somewhere true As if the dark had kept a place For everything we'd do But stars don't know my name And time won't mourn my dust Maybe all this universe Was never made for us No hand upon the wheel No promise in the dark What if we were never given Any reason to exist? [Chorus] Nothing was written for us No ending waits above No universe decided Who we lose or who we love Maybe there is no answer No purpose left to find Nothing was written for us So the words are yours and mine [Verse 2] I've watched good people disappear Before their time was due And cruel hands live long enough To make a lie feel true No balance came to settle it No stars fell from the sky The world kept turning silently Without explaining why And maybe that's the hardest truth We ever have to face The universe can carry on Without giving us a place No hand upon the wheel No promise in the dark What if we were never given Any reason to exist? [Chorus] Nothing was written for us No ending waits above No universe decided Who we lose or who we love Maybe there is no answer No purpose left to find Nothing was written for us So the words are yours and mine [Bridge] I used to think that emptiness Would swallow everything That without some greater meaning Nothing smaller meant a thing But a hand still stops another From falling through the cracks A stranger still can carry you When you cannot carry back A child still laughs without knowing Why the universe began And none of that becomes less real Because it wasn't planned So if the stars are silent LET THEM BE SILENT If nothing waits beyond them LET NOTHING WAIT I don't need the universe To tell me who to love I don't need eternity To make one moment enough Maybe meaning isn't waiting Somewhere hidden in the stars Maybe meaning only happens In the space between our hearts A temporary consciousness Beneath an endless sky Can know that it will disappear And still decide To live [Final Chorus] Nothing was written for us No ending waits above No universe decided Who we lose or who we love...
