Closer To Nowhere
Jen Foster
Words & Music by Jen Foster

Do you know who you are?
Do you ever think
about it?
If you were told it's a place
Would you drive until you found
it?

Or would you turn down a street
That you know would lead to where you
were before?
You call it home, but are you really sure
That's your
home?

Do you know what you want?
Have you ever reconsidered
What a trip we
are on
And it's the only ride we're given?

If you could fly, would you
try?
Would your feet stay firmly planted on the ground?
Can you explain why
the only place you go
Is to waste?

Now you go to work and you work all
day
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
You tell some jokes to kill that
time
Til the boss comes back and at the stroke of 5
You hit those bars, you
have some drinks
You drown in all your long lost dreams
Oh no, you're closer
to nowhere

Do you know who you love?
Can you say those words with
feeling?
Or when you look in those eyes
Is there someone else you're
seeing?

Do you dream of a day
You could take the love without running
away?
What is it now? Do you need a little space?
Or are you wanting
out?

Now you go to work and you work all day
You smoke and bitch on your
coffee break
You grab that phone, rehearse those lines
Then you call home
sayin' you gotta work tonight
You hit those bars, you buy some drinks
For
the first one who looks good and thinks you're cool
You're closer to
nowhere...

You fake it so well
Nobody can tell
You buy what they
sell
You're going places....

Now you go to work and you work all day
You
smoke and bitch on your coffee break
You share your plans and you swear you'll
quit
Maybe next year or the year after it
You hit those bars, you have some
drinks
You take those pills, you go to sleep
You wake up someday all
alone
You realize another year is gone
You're closer to nowhere

And all
these signs will be your guides
But you must pay attention
And all the lights
that line the sides
Are beautiful, don't miss them...

You're closer to
nowhere...
