This song is about the feeling of digging thru data on the internet, trying desperately to connect threads, make sense of what I'm reading, or just find something *new*. It's a bit depressing for me to think that most of the info I see on the internet has been recycled countless times, as if repeating (or retweeting) something somehow reinforces it in a meaningful way. Somtimes, IRL it does have this effect, in the same way as a preacher might repeat a phrase or refrain to heighten the emotional weight and impact. But on the web, I see a lot of "info" as pollution, and further dismayed to realized how quickly I am sucked into it.
LYRICS:
Stop to look at all the data; no time, I'll check it later.
Compiling information, pointless investigation.
Need to rest my eyes, need to find a needle in the pile.
Prize the mundane.
What you looking at?
I've got a job to do,
I think I've found something new, so new,
So new.
(What?)
I need an answer to...
(Who?)
Just won't do
(Here)
Compiling information,
(There)
Pointless investigation.
(Must)
Keep on searching for
(Some)
Thing different, better, more,
Almost through!
What you looking at?
I've got a job to do,
I think I've found something new, so new.
So new.
It's just a little too much, I've gotta try to back up,
And look it over somehow.
I wanna see what I got, got a feeling a lot, but I'm stuck,
Can't see what I mean.
Stop, and look at all the data,
I missed something, I need to...
The volume's too demanding,
My filter notwithstanding.
My vision's failing me,
Got to learn how to be free again,
Step away!
Who am I talking to?
I've got a job to,
I think I've found something new, so new.
So new.
