The Way To Nowhere

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
She's on her way to workHer heart is wearing thinThe tattoos leave a markFrom everywhere she's beenCause she's never in one placeShe takes it on the chinNow tears are welling upAnd they are rushing down her skinWhile she's pushing trough the doorShe hides behind a grinBut no one really knows how sadShe feels withinLife goes on, put a sad song onShe's tryna go the distanceBut she's running out of loveIt doesn't make a differenceNo it's never quite enoughBuys chocolate bars and magazinesThe things that make her smileBut she falls down, down, downShe's on her way back to work at 7When the morning sun is upShe goes home at 11With her coat all buttoned upBuys cigarettes and dvdsThe thing that make her smileBut she falls down, down, downShe's on her way to nowhereDriving in the rain to her houseRight up the roadHer name is on the mailboxBut it never feels like homeWhen she's climbing into bed, you knowShe's climbing all aloneWhen she's climbing into bedShe's climbing on her ownLife goes on, put a sad song onShe's tryna go the distanceBut she's running out of loveIt doesn't make a differenceNo it's never quite enoughBuys chocolate bars and magazinesThe things that make her smileBut she falls down, down, downShe's on her way back to work at 7When the morning sun is upShe goes home at 11 with her coatAll buttoned upBuys cigarettes and dvdsThe thing that make her smileBut she falls down, down, downShe's on her way to nowhereHe's working at the barAnd takes a later shiftA little drunk and far too young toEnd up just like thisWhen he takes her by the handShe does not resistThey're on their way to nowhereBecause nowhere sure beats thisShe's tryna go the distanceNow she's got a little loveA little makes a differenceEven if it's not enoughThe chocolate bars and magazinesJust leave 'em on the shelfAnd put 'em down, down, downShe's on her way back to work at 7When the morning sun is upThe drive home at 11To smoke cigarettes and stuffThe dvds and memoriesYou keep them to yourselfFrom the way down, down, downThey're on their way to nowhere
