Takes Me Nowhere

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 --- Takes Me Nowhere - The Offspring
