When Something Becomes Nothing

You, the candlelight and me
 Are as peaceful as a moving train
 You're as far as I can see
 From the person that you once had been
 Trade the life you broke into
 For the things you see in me
 All the while you swagger through
 Am I too demanding?
 Oh, it's a shame to me
 How the sun can shine so brightly
 You can hardly see
 And then you end up screaming
 Show me something
 Do you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Oh, no, it's nothing"
 Then walk away
 If I said show me something
 Would you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Tell me nothing"
 Release me
 The shadow across the open road
 Shines a light on what we used to know
 How much blind have we become
 When our minds are made up to the foe
 Helping sight reveals the truth
 Of the bitterness of men
 No surprises left in view
 Am I understanding?
 Oh, it's a shame to me
 How the sun can shine so brightly
 You can hardly see
 And then you end up screaming
 Show me something
 Do you receive what you want?
 When you say, "Oh, no, it's nothing"
 Then walk away
 If I said show me something
 Would you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Don't tell me nothing"
 Save me
 Oh, it's a crying shame
 How the sun can shine so brightly
 In your open face
 And still you end up screaming
 Show me something
 Would you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Oh, no, it's nothing"
 Then walk away
 If I said show me something
 Would you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Don't tell me nothing"
 Release me, release me
 I said, show me something
 Do you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Oh, no, it's nothing"
 Then walk away
 If I said, show me something
 Would you receive what you want?
 And you say, "Don't tell me nothing"
 Save me
