Lyrics
When Something Stands For Nothing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When something stands for nothin
A detached memory
This one's about everythin you don't think about until yousleep
This one's for nothin
And this one's for fun
This one's about
Rock n' roll, and comic books and bubble gum
Ooh ooh ooh...
Well each day offers somethin
But none of it'll last
Unless you, ya take the reigns, take em from the knight
Push the pawn right through the pass
And this one's for the silence
And the questions that it brings
And the smell of time and the reverence
And the possibilities
You 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 nothin
And this one's for fun
And this one's about
Rock n' roll and comic books and bubble gum
