Lyrics
If everything is nothing
Then let’s throw it all away
Cause you just can’t take it with you
When you’re rotting in your grave
So get that tattoo that you know you shouldn’t get
Send that text that you know you shouldn’t send
Stay up all night I’ll be sleeping when I’m dead
Cause everything is nothing at all
I’m sick and tired of taking everything seriously
I used to work a 9 to 5 and now I'm high on a beach
I’m finally happy with the person that I’m trying to be
You know what
I don’t give a fuck obviously
I hated
All my inhibitions Scared to make
My own decisions
Stuck inside
This tunnel vision
Ending this shit right now
If everything is nothing
Then let’s throw it all away
Cause you just can’t take it with you
When you're rotting in your grave
So get that tattoo that you know you shouldn’t get
Send that text that you know you shouldn’t send
Stay up all night I’ll be sleeping when I’m dead
Cause everything is nothing at all
I’m sick of everything
Even saying I am
I’m drinking every beer I get out of the side of the can
And smoking everything they put in my hand
Any mistake I make I made it part of the plan
I hated
All my inhibitions
Scared to make
My own decisions
Stuck inside This tunnel vision
Ending this shit right now
If everything is nothing
Then let’s throw it all away
Cause you just can’t take it with you
When you’re rotting in your grave
So get that tattoo that you know you shouldn’t get
Send that text that you know you shouldn’t send
Stay up all night I’ll be sleeping when I’m dead
Cause everything is nothing at all
Everything is nothing at all
Everything is nothing at all
