Sometimes I go through bouts of existential dread and honestly this song is great at comforting me through it. I wish this song was more well-known.

Ana Ng

i don't own anything

All that he does is chip away, each day he sticks to his routine
Putting the pieces on, building a big machine
He ran out of room inside his room 
And so he moved it all outside
Now it's a bit too big, now it's a mile wide

The family vans across the desert
Follow signs to park and stare
Nobody says hello, nobody knows he's there
They just look at the blinking lights and greebles,
Interlocking arms of steel
And they think 
"Nothing could be so big, nothing could be so real"

They think
"One million springs and spinning things
It's quite a view
We have no clue, what does it do?"
That's the beauty of it, it doesn't do anything
Doesn't do anything, doesn't do anything

He made his own night-vision goggles, now he lurks inside the frame
Perfecting it from within, forgetting his own name
All that he knows is that it needs him, all it knows is he needs it
Every piston, every single little bit

The government people in black helicopters try to snoop around
I'm so sorry, but he needs the extra parts
He takes the choppers down
Now there are tanks on the horizon asking what are his demands
Not one of them understands, nobody understands

All the megaphones scream
"One million gears
Perhaps our fears are coming true
What does it do?
What does it do?"
That's the beauty of it, it doesn't do anything
Doesn't do anything

Lost in solipsism, he then slowly pulls a lever
Which sets off a mechanism which does nothing whatsoever
But the nothing that it does negates the everything we know
Because it's screaming just because, because it's neither friend or foe
And so we label it a menace or a grandiose work of art
From its finale to its genesis, we slowly pull it all apart

That's the beauty of it
It doesn't do anything, do anything
Doesn't do anything, doesn't do anything
