doing the not doing

You, you are a surprise
I can't believe there is noone to ask you any of the questions
that somebody thinks are probably the most important parts
We didn't know what we were doing except that we were doing it
and maybe, at one time we weren't entirely sure we would end up disappointed
So, we were, in a word, doing alright

There were so many people to meet today
he explained that sometimes he speaks and he doesn't know why
how if you asked him again he wouldn't remember
That part about everything adding up to nothing, well,
we're almost entirely fairly sure that that was shitty to say
and in the end, we think he might be wrong
(about some parts, anyway)

It's important, essential even
he said he can't think of anything more than once
because everytime we remember, it falls more and more apart
until we're left with feelings we can't sit or even stand beside anymore
This is science, and we can prove you never got over anything
except obcession, accept obcession is the quickest way to forget

So, some body believes in something
We get jealous, and curious, and cynical, and heartbroken
He starts and stops, and starts and stops, and starts and stops, and
Then we think this might be getting a bit ridiculous,
and won't someone just say something or just do anything, just to see
In unison then, we whisper the words, "Oh, ok, i see."
