Staring Into Nothing Lyrics & Tabs by Kevin Gilbert
Staring Into Nothing
guitar chords lyrics
Here I am again with the bright lights on my face and I am lonely
A thousand screaming voices, screaming out my name and I am lonely
Someone said "Hey Johnny do you still love me?"
I said "Baby don't you ever use that word around me ‘cause I don't want to hear it anymore."
Take a look in my eyes
Go on take a look in my eyes
You're staring into nothing at all
Nothing at all
You're staring into nothing at all
Nothing at all
I'm not what I seem ‘cause I am not real
Pretending to care, pretending to feel
Here I am again with everything that I could want and I am empty
With the blanket of approval and the slaps upon my back and I am empty
Someone said "Hey Johnny, do you feel happy?"
Here I am again with everything that I could want and I am empty
With the blanket of approval and the slaps upon my back and I am empty
Someone said "Hey Johnny, do you feel happy?"
And I said "I don't need anybody's ten cent therapy. Can't you see I'm on top of the world."
Take a look in my eyes
Go on take a look in my eyes
You're staring into nothing at all
Nothing at all
You're staring into nothing at all
Nothing at all
I'm not what I seem ‘cause I am not real
Pretending to care, pretending to feel
I'm not what I seem, ‘cause I cannot feel
I can't go on pretending I'm real
The curtain parts again
Revealing politicians and thieves
The champions of nothing
We perform in a silhouette
Lit from behind by blinding sheets of light
In the halo of nothing
The show was second hand
Derived from what we thought you'd need to see
The story of nothing
But everyone was entertained
And no one could remember how it was
Before there was nothing
Radio Announcer:
In a related story Johnny Virgil. The young singer whose concert dates were breaking attendance records this summer says he's quitting the business. At a press conference held this morning at the Hyatt Regency Virgil's manager stated that the singer was suffering from exhaustion and would be unable to complete the rest of his scheduled appearances on his tour. Fans were said to be disappointed but enthusiastic about a refund being offered by Stanley Company, tour sponsors. Stanley Beer offers a free twelve pack of their special Johnny Beer in exchange for untorn Johnny Virgil concert ticket stubs.
