Takes Me Nowhere

When the day begins

All the guilt sinks in

And I look on the wreckage of the night

Though I try to break free

The cycle breaks me

Am I ever gonna see the light?

All the friends I've lost

And the pain I've caused

Have never been enough just to make me stop

The lines I draw to look at myself

Are turning into somebody else

I know how this will end

But I'm starting up again

Turned around, inside out

Cause this way

Takes me nowhere - I can't can't see a way out

Takes me nowhere - I can't can't see a way out

Takes me nowhere - I can't can't see a way out

It beats me up

When I go there - I know I could start again

When I go there - Oh no, here we go again

Takes me nowhere - Oh no, here we go again

It beats me up

Open on this scene

A familiar dream

Of you telling me what I already know

Though the truth seems near

You can't get there from here

But you sure know where you're gonna go

As the rumor wind blows

My infamy grows

Seeing friends above

And I hit another low

The picture I paint to look at myself

Is turning into somebody else

I know how this will end

But I'm starting up again

Turned around, inside out

Cause this way

But today, if I change

And stop digging my own grave

I will try, to set things right

Cause this way
