Nothing Inside
Sander Van Doorn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't see it in your eyes
Just a cold blank stare
And no one's asking why
Why you don't seem to care
We're lost our way, lost our way

Maybe we're run out of time
Driving our selves out of our minds
Maybe we're missing the signs
All of our dreams making us blind
Baby we're leaving behind
Nothing to see, nothing inside

You're falling out of touch
And you're barley there
Keeping up with the rush
Just to go nowhere
We're lost our way, lost our way

Maybe we're running out of time
Driving ourselves out of our mines
Maybe we're missing the signs
All of our dreams making us blind
Baby we're leaving behind




Nothing to see, nothing inside
We're out of our minds with nothing inside

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sander van Doorn's song "Nothing Inside" reflect the story of a crumbling relationship. The song begins with the singer observing a noticeable change in his partner's actions and expressions. They are no longer invested in the relationship as they once were, and their eyes now display a "cold blank stare." The lack of emotion and investment in the relationship has left the singer feeling lost, unsure of where they stand with one another. The repeated phrase "We're lost our way" emphasizes the confusion and uncertainty of the relationship's future.


The chorus then highlights a deeper internal struggle that both partners are experiencing. They may be so consumed with their own personal dreams and ambitions that they have neglected the needs of the relationship. This neglect is illustrated through the words "all of our dreams making us blind." Their aspirations have blinded them to the fact that they are losing touch with each other, and they are now "leaving behind nothing to see, nothing inside." The final line, "We're out of our minds with nothing inside," emphasizes the emptiness they are feeling in their relationship.


Overall, the song captures the sad and all too common story of a relationship's slow decay. The lyrics highlight the need for communication, investment, and attention in order to maintain a strong, healthy relationship.


Line by Line Meaning

I don't see it in your eyes
I cannot detect any emotion or feeling from your gaze


Just a cold blank stare
Your expression shows no signs of warmth or engagement


And no one's asking why
No one is questioning the reason behind your behavior


Why you don't seem to care
Why you display no interest or concern


We're lost our way, lost our way
Our direction or purpose is unclear and uncertain


Maybe we're run out of time
Perhaps there is not enough time left for us


Driving our selves out of our minds
We are mentally exhausting ourselves


Maybe we're missing the signs
We may be overlooking important indications or hints


All of our dreams making us blind
Our hopes and aspirations may be clouding our judgment


Baby we're leaving behind
We are abandoning or neglecting


Nothing to see, nothing inside
There is no substance or depth beneath the surface


You're falling out of touch
You are losing contact or connection


And you're barley there
You are barely present or engaged


Keeping up with the rush
We are trying to keep pace with the pressure and demands


Just to go nowhere
Despite our efforts, we are not making any real progress


We're out of our minds with nothing inside
Our mental state is chaotic or disordered, lacking substance or depth
