They say the road to hell is paved
With all the promises we make
Our good intentions gone to waste
And the pressure builds until we break
Light the match, let it fall
Hold the world in your hands
Fake a smile, in denial
Watch it burn to ashes
Light the fuse, set it off
Watch your hard work blow
And wonder if you have anywhere
Else that you can go
With a nowhere future and nowhere to go
With broken promises and even more lies
And I’m not going home
They say that if you leap without lookin’
You’re likely to get burned
Out of the fryin’ pan and into the fire
But is the lesson ever learned?
Keep your friends close as you possibly can
And watch them test the ropes
‘Cause enemies are closer than you think
And betrayal comes at a price too steep
Light the match, let it fall
Hold the peace in your hands
Fake a smile, in denial
Burn it all to ashes
Light the fuse, set it off
Watch your friendship blow
And realize that you have nowhere
Else that you can go
(Nowhere road)
With a nowhere future and nowhere to go
(Nowhere to go)
With broken promises and even more lies
(Nowhere)
(Nowhere)
And I’m not going home
Who am I without you?
(Who are you gonna be)
Who am I without you?
(When the war comes callin’?)
Who am I without you?
(Who are you gonna be)
Who am I without you?
(When elections fall?)
Who am I without you?
(Who are you gonna be)
Who am I without you?
(When the wolves are howlin’ at your door?)
Who am I without you?
(Will you stand, will you fight, will you bleed?)
Who am I without you?
(Will you die as the kid from nowhere?)
With a nowhere future and nowhere to go
With broken promises and even more lies
(Who are you gonna be)
(Nowhere)
(When the war comes callin’?)
(Light the match, fake a smile)
(Nowhere)
(Blow it all to hell!)
(Who are you gonna be?)
(Nowhere)
(When the war comes callin’?)
(Light the match, fake a smile)
(Nowhere)
(Blow it all to-)
(Blow it all to-)
(Blow it all to hell!)
