Nowhere Fast

Original

There's a skyline city buried in my mind.

The traces of a man long left behind. I swear

I haven't changed, but some think I might.

I swear I haven't changed, it ain't a matter of time.

I thought moving on to something new would fill my time.

But again I'm just as empty as a bottle of wine. Oh Lord,

I can't erase what's wired in my mind.

Oh Lord, I can't erase what's wired in my mind.

Going deep to cut my roots. Praying to the Lord I'll find my truth.

Right now, right here, don't feel like anywhere.

Through these days that beat my ass. I learned you just can't get nowhere fast.

Somehow, someday I know I'll make it there.

Somehow, someday I know I'll make it there.

There's a drop dead smile and a beautiful mind.

That I traded for a dollar and a couple of lines. I sing every night but still just ain't right.

And I remember holding hope in the stinging cold.

Said I'd make a little money and move on home.

But we both know that it just won't go that way.

But we both know that it just won't go that way.

Going deep to cut my roots. Praying to the Lord I'll find my truth.

Right now, right here, don't feel like anywhere.

Through these days that beat my ass. I learned you just can't get nowhere fast.

Somehow, someday I know I'll make it there.

I know I'll make it there.

Oh, I know I'll make it there.

There's a skyline city buried in my mind.

The traces of a man long left behind. I swear

I haven't changed, but some think I might.

I swear I haven't changed, it ain't a matter of time.
