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 gum

Well, 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 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 nothing, and this one's for fun
And this one's about rock 'n' roll and comic books and bubble gum
