about

Story Behind the Song

This song took me the longest to write. It's about a general feeling of constantly running out of money. I would always run my life in the short run and have just enough money to make it to the next few weeks. I cut corners in lots of places, didn't eat that much.

This song felt like a panic attack.

lyrics

I don't believe that we have sinned
Because there is no God
I don't believe in finite time
Because life will go on
I don't accept that we chose this
We were so uninformed
I don't accept that we will quit
Our past should have been warned

Here There Nowhere
Here There Nowhere

Stuck in the middle
Just you and me
Stuck in the middle
Purgatory

I don't remember solid ground
Cause we just float in place
I don't remember falling down
Cause I can't feel my face
I don't recall our comfort zone
We really wandered far
I don't recall why we're alone
There's people everywhere
