Nowhere Fast

It's getting cold, it's getting dark, the nights are longer every day The air is heavy and the clouds will never burn away And we've been waitin' here so long that we've forgotten what it's like To turn into the fire, lookin' straight into the, straight into the light 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 want to 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 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 is all you'll ever need, all you'll ever need to know [Chorus] You and me we're goin' nowhere slowly and we gotta get away from the past There's nothin' 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 nothin' 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 doin' here is hangin' 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 some, 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 [Chorus]
