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 everyone 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 
Cos it's easier being lonely 
Than being let down again and again 
When you're standing on edge of 
things, It means you never have to pretend. 

Well you can turn the clock back 
Pretend that you're still young and 
unaware. But everyone 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.
