Nowhere Fast

Lyrics

It's getting cold, it's getting dark, the nights are longer everyday
 The air is heavy, and the clouds will never burn away
 And we've been waiting here so long that we've forgotten what it's like
 To run into the fire, looking straight into the, straight into the light
 Your heart is trying to rock, but it can barely beat at all
 Your soul is tryin' to run but all your body does is crawl
 You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
 Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over the line
 I wanna tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back
 We're tearin' down the highway, and we're breakin' away
 Breakin' away, breakin' away, we're breakin' away from the pack
 We're breakin' away from the pack
 And if you don't have anywhere to go
 You go down on your pedal, and you're ready to roll
 And even if you don't have anywhere to go
 You go down on your pedal, and you're ready to roll
 And the speed, it's all you'll ever need
 All you'll ever need to know
 You and me, we're goin' nowhere slowly
 And we gotta get away from the past
 There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
 But we should be goin' nowhere fast
 Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
 They're only fighting for the chance to be last
 There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
 But we should be goin' nowhere fast
 It's so much better goin, nowhere fast
 ♪
 You shouldn't always see your world so clearly
 You shouldn't always know your place so well
 And all we're doing here is hanging around
 And goin' anywhere has gotta be heaven
 'Cause stayin' here is gonna be hell
 And goin' anywhere has gotta be heaven
 'Cause stayin' here has gotta be hell
 ♪
 I'm getting lost, I'm getting found, I'm getting born again each day
 We're dyin' on the vine until we finally, 'til we finally get away
 The boundaries of this town are closin' in just like a noose
 The future's gonna rust if we don't put it to, don't put it to some use
 Your heart is tryin' to rock, but it can barely beat at all
 Your soul is tryin' to run but all your body does is crawl
 You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
 Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over the line
 I wanna tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back
 We're tearing down the highway, and we're breakin' away
 Breakin' away, breakin' away, we're breakin' away from the pack
 Oh, breakin' away from the pack
 And if you don't have anywhere to go
 You go down on the pedal, and you're ready to roll
 And even if you don't have anywhere to go
 You go down on the pedal, and you're ready to roll
 And your speed, it's all you'll ever need
 All you'll ever need to know
 You and me, we're goin' nowhere slowly
 And we gotta get away from the past
 There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
 But we should be goin' nowhere fast
 Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
 They're only fighting for the chance to be last
 There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
 But we should be goin' nowhere fast
 You and me, we're goin' nowhere slowly
 And we gotta get away from the past
 There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
 But we should be goin' nowhere fast
 Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
 They're only fighting for the chance to be last
 There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere, baby
 But we should be goin' nowhere fast
 You and me, we're goin' nowhere slowly
 And we gotta get away from the past
 There's nothing wrong with going nowhere, baby
 But we should be going nowhere fast
