And so what if I'm empty inside!
Happiness still has a place here
There's certainly plenty of space here
for Joy to reside
That's what, if I'm empty inside.

And so what if I've nothing to lose!
With little worth keeping
There's more time for sleeping
Or whatever I choose
That's what if I've nothing to lose.

And so what if I've nothing to gain!
That's hardly an onus
Seems more like a bonus
I didn't want any more pain, anyway
So I'll give it a shot, if I've nothing to gain.

And so what I am saying, what I am explaining
Is why there's no reason to sigh.
Because
Empty with nothing to win
Is a fortunate place to begin.
