Shell

I remember the past
Every notion and emotion
Would never last
All they gave me was a serious commotion

I see the present
Everything and everyone
Is that of a peasant
They will all soon be done

I know the future
Everything I will be taking and faking
Won't leave anyone in a stupor
All will leave me quaking and aching

I am nothing, though
I am just a shell of a person who I was before
Who I was before is gone
I understand now that there's nothing
There's nothing in the past
Nothing in the present
Nothing in my future
It all doesn't mean anything
And if doesn't mean anything
I don't mean anything to myself
That's why I am a shell
