Frank Turner - Going Nowhere lyrics

When you're just a stone's throw from where
You started and you're going nowhere
When everything you had that was
Solid is melted into air
When you worked your fingers down to the
Bone but didn't get your fair share

I'll be there in there like swimwear
I'm going nowhere

When you feel like you're letting down your
Friends and you failed your family
When you're a hedgehog who
Can't help pricking
All the people that you meet
When the ravens leave the tower and you're
Cowering for fear in the city

I'll be there in there like swimwear
I'm going nowhere

The empires may fall, and the seas may rise
But, I'll be at your side, by and by
I'm like an armchair i'm going nowhere

When you took your umbrella in your
Rain but you still got soaked
When you worked a 62-hour week
But you ended up broke
And when the world that you thought made
Sense turned out to be a joke

I'll be there in there like swimwear
I'm going nowhere

When you made your best plans but
Somehow they just didn't work
'Cause you were counting on your countrymen
And women not to go berserk
And the future's falling in and all that's
Left is a hollow kind of hurt

I'll be there in there like swimwear
I'm going nowhere

You think my beauty may slip away
But, I can try to make you happy every day
I'm like your gray hair i'm going nowhere

Now the tune may falter and
The words may slide
But here's hoping that the sentiment survives
I'm like your record player
I'm like an armchair i'm going nowhere
