This road is going nowhere
And these, these shoes are worn too thin
There’s always should haves, where I’m going
There’s always could haves, where I’ve been
And all the things that I’ve said
And the road up ahead
Don’t mean nothing, don’t mean nothing
And the things that I’ve done and the man I’ve become, disappear
I wish I was anywhere but here
There’s always footsteps from behind me
Why don’t they ever read the writing on the wall
And all the time I’ve spent rewinding
It might mean nothing, it might mean nothing at all
And all the things that I’ve said
And the road up ahead
Don’t mean nothing, don’t mean nothing
And the things that I’ve done and the man I’ve become, disappear
I wish I was anywhere but here
The bed next to me is empty
Just like the, the shell I’m still trying to fill
The things put in life to tempt me
They won’t ever, they might break my will
And all the things that I’ve said
And the road up ahead
Don’t mean nothing, don’t mean nothing
And the things that I’ve done and the man I’ve become, disappear
Wish I was anywhere but here
Wish I was anywhere but here
