Light And Sound

Whenever life makes sense
I'm not in it
George is on one of his desparate rants again
He jumps on his desk, catches his breath for a minute
And goes on about how he's not here to be my friend
“That stuff won't buy you breakfast in the end,”
He says, he says.

I'm so worn out
By all these directionless days
Jane is saying the same thing a million different ways
She had her dreams, she made her trades
Now all that's left is an empty smiling shell and a full ash try
She took a personal development class today
Oh Jane, oh Jane.

Oh, I'm watching it all go down
If it's not in my mind, it's all just light and sound.

New people walk on in
And bring their old minds with ‘em
Mike is laying on his stale charm to see what it can get him
“Hey girl, check out my ride,” he says
“How bitchin' is it?”
Every Monday morning he asks me if I missed him
I try not to listen.

Oh, I'm watching it all go down
If it's not in my mind, it's all just light and sound
Oh, I'm watching it all go down
If it's not in my mind, it's all just light and sound
It's all just light and sound.
