• Going Nowhere

I was late, late for the third time.
Missed the bus. I guess I'll be walking.
Go left right left right

I walked straight into the street sign.
Hit the ground, right on the beat.
I went right down right

Lost my job. It's alright.
Lost my home. It's alright.
Damn it all!
Bit by dogs it alright.
Broke my heart. It's alright.
Damn it all!

And I'll go walking down these tracks.
And I'll go scruffing up my slacks.
Don't think I'll go back.
We're going nowhere, going nowhere

My life was all laid out to the last detail
And then the seams slowly frayed, ripped, decayed.
Everyday disintegrate
I never thought that this could be.
I had to leave once the damage was complete.

And even though I love you I still need to escape.

When I look up from these books and see
the person that I could be
In five years, ten years
two kids, two cars
in a rich suburban neighborhood
where I’ve traded all my singing
for a pocket full of money
my cynicism for apathy
no, that’s not who I want to be

I hope that I will stay
far from going that way
and if I see myself starting to stray
I will go far away

I'm gonna close down my bank account
I'm gonna cut up my IDs
and Cut off all my hair
and I'll burn my fingerprints off
and I'll scar up my own face
yeah I will get out of here
I'll leave without a trace

No one's going to recognize me again
Not even a farewell to my friends
