[As you can see, many possible titles.
I wanted this to be a more layered, twisting, repetitive song.
I hate how much the chorus sounds like Foo Fighters in my head.]

First call, second call
Suddenly you start to fall
Stumbling, tumbling
Mutating into nothing
Empty, full, emptiness
Ignore the first, flatter the rest
Can't describe, seeing live
Wait for the notion to arrive

Pre-Chorus:
All I'll ever be to you is nothing
And nothing I can do (will/can) ever change that

Chorus:
Hey
This is how it feels to feel like nothing
Hey, oh
This is how it feels to feel so (blank/clean)
Hey
Sometimes it's kind of nice to feel like nothing
Hey, oh
(Sometimes it's kind of nice to feel so (clean/free/blank)/You know it isn't me you have to thank)

Burning again, I don't know when
(Wait 'til I count down from ten)?
Have a cause to break the laws
Does it count if no one saw?
Use your phone, stay alone
Doesn't matter once you're home
Fall asleep to try to keep
(Two steps back for a running leap/Leave your name after the beep)

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

Last call, missed it all
Inevitably you start to fall
Mumbling, fumbling
(Always shown/Depicted) as nothing
Stay inside, try to hide
So long ago, habits (derived/contrived)
Consumed in pain, covered in shame
Anything that sounds the same

(Chorus)

Hey
And if all I am to you is nothing
Hey, oh
What's the point in stringing me along?
Hey
'Cause all I'll ever be to you is nothing
Hey, oh
(That's why/And so) when you (keep/hold) me close it feels wrong

(Chorus?)
