Thea Gilmore - Down To Nowhere lyrics

Well, I am going down to nowhere It is not too far from here And the rain'll be running rings Around this tin-pot cavalier And there are skeletons and wastrels As far as the eye can see So if you want me baby Then nowhere's where I'll be Yeah, I am going down to nowhere Oh its child's play We are turning up our collars We are hijacking the day And you can tell me about your journeys You can tell me all your dreams But nothing comes close To the nowhere that I've seen And all you people heading somewhere Well, you don't know what you're missing ‘Cause there's nothing like the freedom Of a place where no one listens So I am going down to nowhere It is steeped in history This is high-rise living for a Joke like me We are such pretty little failures On streets paved with fools gold And no-one will think twice about The nothing that they've sold And all you people who're heading somewhere Well you don't know what you're missing ‘Cause there's nothing like the freedom Of a place where no one listens So I am going down to nowhere With the drop-outs and the bums I'm a soldier of the vacuum When the darkness comes I'm a vaudeville comedian In a theatre of bones And it's a laugh a minute When nowhere is your home
