about
"Get Nowhere" is about running to stand still, and giving in to fear: fear of change, fear of failure, fear of success...
lyrics
look me up, or look me over
spare a single thought for me
i see your life as endless fields of clover with
just a breeze and a cloud or three
oh, what i wouldn’t give to meet you there
to watch you catch the wind and watch it stroke your hair…
such a long time for this restless dreaming
so little tangible relief for me
it’s not the life that i had pictured, but
certain moments are enough, you see
i wish we’d met, and you could just drop by
how we’d laugh, my dear, and how the time would fly…
chorus: but if i speak, i end this, it’s too great a risk
i just don’t dare
so i run to stand still while the hourglass fills
i climb the stairs
but get nowhere
sleep late and greet the day at noontime
catch a train into the heart of town
little pain, yeah, but it’s just the right thing to
bring me up from the underground
in dreams, i just catch your eye
how we laugh, my dear, and how the time goes by…
chorus: but if i speak, i end this, it’s too great a risk
i just don’t dare
so i run to stand still while the hourglass fills
i climb the stairs
but get nowhere..
