Lyrics

We say we’re working late We think we’re working hard But we all know that gets us just so far We say the problem’s solved We strike it off the list And never notice the details that we missed

And we will all zone out All zone out Yes we will all zone out By midnight

Some of us read the book We think we’re so inspired And deny it when people say we’re tired We quiet all our thoughts We reach into the flow Just for the one more hour we can go

And we will all zone out We will all zone out Yes we will all zone out By midnight

Time lost to the blinking lights And the gurgle of the coffee machine Time is an illusion and everything We do is only a dream

But this can’t be the end We have to find the way Somebody said today would be the day My keyboard is to blame My fingers lost their touch The answers are too little or too much

And we will all zone out All zone out Yes we will all zone out By midnight

All together now All zone out All zone out By midnight

You had me from this: "We say the problem’s solved We strike it off the list And never notice the details that we missed"

This is a rich story revealed by such nitty-gritty details. Some fine homespun philosophy from the mouth of your narrator too.

Nice chorus about zoning out....I like that bridge too about the time lost to the blinking machine, really great rhythm that just keeps chugging right through.

This is beautiful and a wee bit frightening! I love this section so much "Time is an illusion and everything / We do is only a dream"! Nicely played and your voice is tender and great for this song! Very nice skirmishing!
