Somewhere North of Nowhere Songtext
von Pattern‐Seeking Animals

Set out on the path to find perfection
There I found oblivion instead
Riding out the rapture far too late to change direction
Forced to face the demons up ahead

Somewhere north of nowhere
Something′s watching me

Running hard and wishing I was elsewhere
Trying to find some shelter under siege
Stranded without wheel or wing wary of the bugbear
Biding time perched high up in the trees

Somewhere north of nowhere
Something's watching me
Somewhere north of nowhere
Something′s watching me
Watching me


Holed up stoned in a home slowly burning
No ammo in my gun
Sunrise shows that the enemy's returning
The gathering's begun
Clouds move in lines in an unnatural symmetry
Blood in my heart runs cold
They′re following the trail of a flock that is running free
Sheep that′ve left the fold

Tuning through the static for a voice on the radio
Hoping to hear some good news
Truth be told it's a fate we already know
Just what we stand to lose
Clear were the warning signs nobody listened
Now no one′s left to fight
No telling how our story will be written
If anybody's left to write

Somewhere north of nowhere
Something′s watching me
Somewhere north of nowhere
Something's watching me

Somewhere north of nowhere (somewhere north of nowhere)
Something′s watching me (something's watching me)
Somewhere north of nowhere (somewhere north of nowhere)
Something's watching me
