Bars & Tone Lyrics by Slugbug

Pointless Journey

2009

Never twice the same color
On phase-alternate lines I picked it up
Out of
The blue

Out the window in the sky above my room
The tower where the signals nightly resumed
Emitted
An eerie
Sort of hum

And even when I thought I was alone
There were the bars and tone
Like a dipole shouting down a hole

Signals come
And signals go
Some will change it to a different show
But late one night on a vacant channel
I found the answer to my problem
Truth in lines!
Truth in numbers!
Fear of dots
Fear of people
And even when
We all are gone
The bars and tone go on

And everything I thought was really there
Was electric waves passing through the air
Like a dipole shouting down a hole
