Idlewild – The Nothing I Know lyrics

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
