Nothing To See Here

Nothing To See Here

There was no accident
Get back to your cars
Back to the dormant streets
Back in to the bars
In spite of what is obvious
Now don't be confused
These scattered pieces are
Just about to be used
As you were, as you are

Back to your hiding place
There is nothing to see here
Move out, move along
In the unbearable light
There is nothing revealed
There is nothing to see here

Stepping over drunks and lit cigarettes
Another tattoo of a sparrow painted blue on her neck
Seventeen and born nocturnal and armed
Lipstick and maker's mark cover permanent scars
As you were, as you are

Back to your hiding place
There is nothing to see here
Move out, move along
In the unbearable light
Nothing's revealed
There is nothing to see here

Two-headed shadow moving through the train yard
They're making love against graffiti stained walls
No expectations and no regrets
He says, "I do," she says,
"I do too, but just not yet"

There's nothing to see here
High on vanity and Cuban cigars
Chasing an ambulance that rambles
'neath turbulent stars
As you were, as you are

Back to your hiding place
There is nothing to see here
Move out, move along
In the unbearable light
Nothing's revealed
There is nothing to see here

Back to your hiding place
There is nothing to see here
Move out, move along
Up on the crowded stage
No one thing is revealed
There is nothing to see here
There is nothing to see here
