A Picture Of Nothing
Words and Music by David Elias, © 2001

A picture of nothing does nothing to free up my mind
The roses have dried up, the water's a waste of their time
I'd like nothing better than to return to days of our song
But a picture of nothing is all that will last for that long

I try to remember the hopes in my heart way back when
When love was what mattered, and running around with my friends
I'd go back tomorrow if I only remembered the way
But a picture of nothing's the only map I see this days

(Bridge)
Try, try, try
I try to unwind
All those years I left behind

So I sit with my back to the desert of all that I've done
And try not to hold on to things that have set with the sun
And I won't hold to tears that go running off into the night
I'll take my last picture of nothing
And wait for the next morning light

I'll take my last picture of nothing
And wait for the next morning light
