When Something Stands for Nothing

When something stands for nothing, a detached memory

This one's about everything you don't think about until you sleep

And this one's for nothing and this one's for fun

And this one's about rock 'n' roll and comic books and bubble gumWell, each day offers something, yeah

But none of it'll last, unless you

You take the reigns, take them from the knight

Push the pawn right through the passAnd this one's for the silence and the questions that it brings

And the smell of time and the reverence and the possibilitiesYou double up the foreground, you put it on a slide

Inspect it with your perfect ways until it burns your eyes

And this one's for nothing, and this one's for fun

And this one's about rock 'n' roll and comic books and bubble gum
