Nowhere Fast Songtext

von Meat Loaf

It's getting cold, it's getting dark
The nights are longer everyday
The air is heavy and the clouds will never burn away
And we've been waiting here so long
That we've forgotten what it's like
To run into the fire lookin' straight into the
Straight into the light

Everybody's goin' nowhere slowly
They're only fighting for the chance to be last
There's nothing wrong with goin' nowhere baby
But we should be goin' nowhere fast
It's so much better goin' nowhere fast

You shouldn't always see your world so clearly
You shouldn't always know your place so well
And all we're doin' here is hangin' around
And goin' nowhere has got to be heaven
Cuz stayin' here is gonna be hell

I'm getting lost, I'm getting found
I'm getting born again each day
We're dyin' on the vine til we finally get away
The boundaries of this town are closin' in just like a noose
The future's gonna rust if we don't put it to some use
Your heart is tryin' to rock but it can barely beat at all
You're soul is tryin' to run but all your body does is crawl
You don't need any signal, you don't need any sign
Nothin's gonna stop you once you cross over that line
I want to tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back
We're tearin' down the highway and we're breakin' away
Breakin' away from the pack
