Of

Of all the things I could have been 
I end up being nothing

Of all the things I really am
Ignored till there is nothing

Of all the things I’ve ever seen
It’s just like I’ve seen nothing

Of all the things I ever dreamed
All faded now to nothing

Of all the men I’ve ever loved
Betrayed till I have no-one

Of all the songs I’ve ever sung
All gone now there is nothing

Of  all the joy I tried to share
They took it till there’s nothing

Of everything I’ve had to bear
All worthless now there’s:-

NOTHING
NO-ONE
NOWHERE

NOTHING NO-ONE NOWHERE
