Nowhere Now

by Matthew and the Atlas

on Other Rivers (2014)

It's harder now, the work is done
And we're nowhere now.
Old bones that wear you down
Old dreams that push you around.
Maybe I'm a stubborn man,
Maybe I can't see
But Jesus don't talk to me,
I never did believe...
Believe.
Do you need to keep pushing on,
Cause this place, this place is like a funeral.
I couldn't help thinking on the talk I heard on the radio
If they're gonna keep pulling it down someday
Maybe you should let it go.
I don't mind telling you so if it gives
You something to hold on to.
Something to hold on to.
You follow the white deer trail,
Found the hunters trap,
Made out steel and wire
But he gripped them round.
I run my hands across your jaws, your teeth, your tongue your brow
The blood is spreading to your brain
We've got to get it out somehow, somehow!
Do you need to keep pushing on,
Cause this place, this place is like a funeral.
I couldn't help thinking on the talk I heard on the radio
If they're gonna keep pulling it down someday
Maybe you should let it go.
I don't mind telling you so, if it gives
You something to hold on to,
Something to hold on to.
A pink moonshine
Lighting your shadow.
A witness to what came before
A witness to what came before!
Do you need to keep pushing on,
Cause this place, this place is like a funeral.
I couldn't help thinking on the talk I heard on the radio
If they're gonna keep pulling it down someday
Maybe you should let it go.
I don't mind telling you so, if it gives
You something to hold on to,
Something to hold on to.
