"All For Nothing" lyrics

When I reach the end, will someone tell me this was all a joke?
All those years were nothing more than dust, that's all I need to know
How can I get up and drag my feet around these haunted halls?
All I need's a reason that means something when my love is gone

I put my time in, I put in for nothin'
And when my time ends, I did it all for nothin'
I put my time in, I put in for nothin'
And when my time ends, I did it all for nothin'

I'm struggling to find a reason not to jump in
Everything that I love will die, is that the lesson?
And on the day that all the noise inside my mind stops
I won't miss these thoughts, I can't miss what's gone

I put my time in, I put in for nothin'
And when my time ends, I did it all for nothin'
I put my time in, I put in for nothin'
And when my time ends, I did it all for nothin'
