Nothing & Nowhere Songtext
von Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton

Sketching your faces
I still don′t know your why you're permanent, permanent
You want all of the moments stolen
Blind alleys and hallways to basements
How′re you gonna hide till you disappear
'Cause nothing and nowhere is golden

Apartments are cages
I still don't know what is permanent, permanent
Maybe all my possessions were precious
Truth is all my possessions I somehow lost ′em
Been travelling so light when we′re floating by
It seems nothing and nowhere is golden


Some say "we're lost in space"
Some say "we′re falling off the page"
Some say "all life is insane, but it isn't insane on paper"

Playgrounds are graveyards
And all of our scars are permanent, permanent
There′s no placement for places
I'll always love you, you′re mine
Numb is the new high, old memories die out
'Till nothing and nowhere is golden

Some say "we always only want to get off"
Some say "our hands are much too soft"
Some say "all life is insane, but it isn't insane on paper"
Some say "our hair is in our eyes"
Some say "we′re out of our little minds"
Some say "all life is insane but it isn′t insane on paper to have
Have to ask"
