It was one hundred degrees as we sat beneath a willow tree
Whose tears didn't care, they just hung in the air
And refused to fall, to fall
I knew I'd made a horrible call
And now the state line felt like the Berlin Wall
And there was no doubt about which side I was on mhmm
Cause I built you a home in my heart
With rotten wood, that decayed from the start
Cause you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along
No, you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along
I braved treacherous streets, and kids strung out on homemade speed,
and we shared a bed in which I could not sleep at all, woo-hoo woo-hoo-o-o-oo
Cause at night the sun in retreat
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth
In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both
You're so cute when you're slurring your speech,
But they're closing the bar and they want us to leave
And you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along
No, you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along
I'm a war, of head versus heart, and it's always this way
My head is weak, my heart always speaks before I know what it will say.
And you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along
No, you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along (No, you can't find)
And you can't find nothin' at all
if there was nothin' there all along
There were churches, theme parks and malls
there was nothin' there all along
