about

Phone demo of an early incarnation of the song

lyrics

Nothing to see here, nothing new under the sun
nothing beneath the cheap illumination
of whiskey evenings / nineties reruns
I followed the rapture and I followed the passion
I couldn’t give them what they were asking
I wanna meet someone just once without this mask on
Sycamore trees and frozen traffic
And all the living things on automatic
Nothing holy, nothing tragic

Same old holding on, same old holding back
Same old veins carrying blood thick and black
Same old heart attack waiting in the wings
Same old heart attack coming

Nothing to fight for and no prizes to be won
Nothing left of my great imagination
So I sit back and let the projector run
Could you give me one time something tribal
Something bloody for my survival
Something deeper than this simulation runs

Same old holding on, same old holding back
Same old veins carrying blood thick and black
Same old heart attack waiting in the wings
Same old heart attack coming


Nothing to be here, nothing new under the sun
Nothing to move to but these tired dance songs
Nothing even that we could take a chance on

Cover the window shut the back door turn the lights out
Climb the Stairs to the bedroom where I pass out
to a troubled sleep but at least it doesn't last long

Same old holding on, same old holding back
Same old veins same old blood thick and black
Same old heart attack waiting in the wings
Same old heart attack coming
