Elliott SmithAbout
Elliott was having an argument with his friends about his future, and how he should be living.

Everything Means Nothing to Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Someone found the future as a statue in a fountain
At attention, looking backward in a pool of water
Wishes with a blue songbird on his shoulder
Who keeps singing over everything
[Chorus]
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
[Verse 2]
I picked up the song and found my picture in the paper
The reflection in the water showed an iron man still trying to salute
People from a time when he was everything he's supposed to be
[Chorus]
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me

Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
