    Pictures of people taking pictures

    I pictured us at the end of time
    Just holding up a camera to our eyes
    I took a picture of you took a picture of me
    In the background of the picture
    Was water running to the sea

    So I pictured us standing there just
    Just staying away from time
    Just watching it like a river as it slowly washes by
    Washes by

    And now
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking pictures
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking pictures

    The feed back loop is closing in so tight
    Surrounding ourselves with satellites

    But I pictured us standing there
    Just staying away from time
    Just watching it like a river as it slowly washes by
    Washes by!

    And now
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking pictures

    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking pictures

    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking pictures

    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking
    Pictures of people taking pictures

    I pictured us at the end of time
    Taking pictures of nothing Writer/s: Jack Hody Johnson
