Frozen in time, lost in a space Your life is movin' at a dead snail's pace No momentum or trajectory for you Still born treacle that you're waiting through All the time wonderin' if the future's passed All the signs are sayin' nowhere fast
How did you get here, no one can say Looking too hard, you can lose your way Don't try to blame nobody else There's only one person who can help yourself All the time you know that it just can't last All the signs are sayin' nowhere fast
Dig a big hole, sink in the rut Stick in the mud till your senses shut Concrete sand around your feet Marching in circles to the drudgy beat All the time in the world that's passed And still you're goin' nowhere fast Will you still remember as you breathe your last All the time you wasted goin' nowhere fast Nowhere fast
