The Nothing I Know - Idlewild

It’s the nothing that I know that makes me feel more comfortable

To be different, rather than useful

And this nothing that I know it makes me feel more comfortable

When I’m distant rather than crucial

And every voice I’ve ever heard

Has never made much sense

They never make much sense to me (and what if…)

Years will make you see things in the distance

How’d you see things in the distance?

(and what if…)

Years will make you see things in the distance

How will I see things in the distance?

The more nothing that I know, it makes me feel more important

Or maybe just more intelligent than I first thought

But providing you with answers isn’t what I’m hoping for

It’s only so that I will not be different

And every voice I’ve ever heard (makes no sense)

Has never made much sense (never makes much sense)

They never make much sense to me

And every voice I’ve ever heard (makes no sense)

They never made much sense (never makes much sense)

They’ll never make much sense to me (and what if…)

Years will make you see things in the distance

How’d you see things in the distance?

(and what if…)

Years will make you see things in the distance

How will I see things in the distance?

And what if the years won’t see it

And what if the years don’t see it

The way I want them to?

And what if the years won’t see it

What if the years don’t see it

The way I want them to?

And every voice I’ve heard

They’ll make no sense to me

And every voice I’ve heard

They’ll make no sense to me

And every voice (and every voice I’ve ever heard)

I’ve heard (they're told to make no sense)

They’ll make no sense to me

And every voice (and every voice I’ve ever heard)

I’ve heard (they're told to make no sense)

They’ll make no sense to me
