6.Takes Me Nowhere [Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace - 2008]
When the day begins All the guilt sinks in And I look on the wreckage of the night Though I try break free The cycle breaks me Am I ever gonna see the light?
All the friends I’ve lost And the pain I’ve caused Have never been enough just to make me stop The lines I draw to looking at myself Are turning into somebody else
I know how this will end But I’m starting up again Turned around, inside out Cause this way
Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out It beats me up
When I go there – I know I could start again When I go there – Oh no, here we go again Takes me nowhere – Oh no, here we go again It beats me up
Open on this scene A familiar dream Of you telling me what I already know Though the truth seems near You can’t get there from here But you sure know where you’re gonna go
As the rumor wind blows My infamy grows Seeing friends above And I hit another low The picture I paint to look at myself Is turning into somebody else
I know how this will end But I’m starting up again Turned around, inside out Cause this way
Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out It beats me up
When I go there – I know I could start again When I go there – Oh no, here we go again Takes me nowhere – Oh no, here we go again It beats me up
But today, if I change And stop digging my own grave I will try, set things right Cause this way
Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out Takes me nowhere – I can’t can’t see a way out It beats me up
When I go there – I know I could start again When I go there – Oh no, here we go again Takes me nowhere – Oh no, here we go again It beats me up
