[Verse]

It does knock me out

No view’s so new inside or out

I replay it and move ahead

Nothing to do but stay at it

Oh I focus

Everything’s the same if I don’t concentrate

On the hocus pocus

It’s all shifting shapes that you can’t trace

[Pre-Chorus]

Is it in the details?

I don’t know

Ok, then is it in the shadows that play?

I don’t know

Alright, then is it just an empty space?

Dave, I can’t say either way

When you ignore the faces of everyone you’ve ever known

Old and new

Projecting love

Protecting it too…

Doesn’t that sound true?

[Chorus]

‘Cause you’ve been focusing on the wrong things

Haven’t you?

You’ve been

Focusing on the "what" when

You should be focusing on the "who"

You should be

Focusing on the "who"

And do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you? oh

[Verse]

Oh lordy, I’m born again and again

So much I’m getting bored of it

I’m letting nothing sink in

‘Cause I’m over it I don’t hope for a change

That’s a cry for help in an empty brain

Disconnected but still tuned in

To the painfulness is this a test?

I don’t know

[Pre-Chorus]

And if so is it pass or fail?

I don’t know about that

Is it so poorly made that you can’t even tell?

Dave, I can’t say either way

When you ignore the places

Where everyone you never knew

And were related to

Lived their truth

Died for it too

[Chorus]

‘Cause you’ve been focusing on the wrong things

Haven’t you?

You’ve been

Focusing on the "what" when

You should be you should be focusing on the "who"

You should be

Focusing on the who

And do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

And do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?

Do it for us, won’t you?
