Going Nowhere Somehow Lyrics

Take a look at where you're going

Do you know where you come from?

Seems like you've spent your life just searching

In the length of just one song

But you know you're going nowhere

Like so many of your age

This has gone on far too long now

To be dismissed as another phase

Well you can turn the clock back

Pretend that you're still young and unaware

But everything that you lack weighs upon your mind

When she's not there

I don't want to break your heart

I don't want to let you down

It's just that I always thought

Life would be more than just

Going nowhere somehow

Now your friends are disappearing

They're getting scarcer day by day

You've only got yourself to blame for that

You always wanted things that way

Cause it's easier being lonely

Than being let down again and again

When you're standing on the edge of things

It means you never have to pretend

Well you can turn the clock back

And hope that you're still young and unaware

But everything that you lack

Weighs upon your mind when she's not there

I don't want to break your heart

I don't want to let you down

It's just that I always thought

Life would be more than just

Going nowhere somehow
