The Headstones

Headstones is a Canadian punk-influenced rock band that was formed in Kingston, Ontario in 1989, broke up in 2003, and then reunited in 2011. Consisting of vocalist Hugh Dillon, guitarist Trent Carr, bassist Tim White, keyboardist Steve Carr and Jesse Labovitz on drums, and a reputation for high energy, 'more rock less super shock' stage presence, and interaction with the audience, they frequently draw capacity crowds at mid-sized venues. Their songwriting tackles many serious and controversial topics. Between 1996 and 2016, Headstones were among the top 150 best-selling Canadian artists in Canada and among the top 35 best-selling Canadian bands in Canada. more »

When something stands for nothing
A detached memory
This ones about everything you don't think about until you sleep
And this one's for nothing and this ones for fun
And this ones about rock 'n' roll and comic books and bubble gum

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh ooh ooh

Well each day offers something
But none of it'll last
Unless you take the reigns take them from the knight
Push the pawn right through the pass
And this one's for the silence and the questions that it brings
And the smell of time and the reverence and the possibilities

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh ooh ooh

You double up the foreground, you put it on a slide
You inspect it with your perfect ways until it burns your eyes
And this ones for nothing
And this ones for fun
And this ones about rock 'n' roll and comic books and bubble gum

Oh ooh oh oh oh oh oh oh ooh ooh
