Nothing to See
[Intro – spoken, calm official voice] Ladies and gentlemen… The situation has been thoroughly reviewed. All procedures were followed. There is… nothing to see. [Verse 1] Headlines fade by morning light Yesterday’s fire is tonight’s rewrite Folders closed with careful grace A different smile, a different face Questions drift like paper planes Lost somewhere in marble lanes Every whisper neatly filed Truth reduced and reconciled [Pre-Chorus] Close the door Dim the screen Clean the stage Wipe it clean [Chorus] Nothing to see Move along politely Nothing to see Everything’s tidy Nothing to see Just a rumor in the breeze Lock the gates and keep the keys Nothing to see [Verse 2] Echoes in the empty hall Pictures taken off the wall Footsteps fading down the stairs Nobody remembers where Silver tongues and tailored tone History quietly overthrown Ink dissolves where light once shone A perfect truth of polished stone [Pre-Chorus] Lower the shade Quiet the room Let the story Meet its tomb [Chorus] Nothing to see Move along politely Nothing to see Everything’s tidy Nothing to see Just a shadow in the breeze Fold the files, erase the keys Nothing to see [Bridge – heavier, darker] The lights go out The locks click twice The silence grows Cold and precise The stage is swept The curtain sealed The truth becomes Something concealed [Break – spoken, almost bored] The matter… has been resolved. [Final Chorus – bigger, cold stadium chant] Nothing to see Move along politely Nothing to see Everything’s tidy Nothing to see All the doors and all the pleas Buried deep beneath decrees Nothing to see Nothing to see [Outro – spoken, quiet] Thank you for your cooperation. Please return… to your normal lives.
