LYRICS-
He waved hello silent like a mime
We met, there's no changing my mind
I won't walk the stairs with you tonight
Going nowhere
The clock moved a quarter of a turn
The time it took a cigarette to burn
She said you got a lot of things to learn
Going nowhere

Saw you move a certain way
Missed you a lot
Return to this abandoned place
Should a been forgot
Echoes drown the conversation out
Echoes that only seem to bring about
A silent expression
Things you may allow
Going nowhere

The steps made a pattern
I'd never seen
I felt like a kid of six or seventeen
I was off in some empty day dream
Going nowhere
It's dead and gone matter of fact
Maybe for the best
Said some things you can't take back
Honestly i guess

The old records
Sitting on the floor
The ones i can't
Put on anymore
He walked over to her like before
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
Going nowhere

  • I seriously love this man RiP Elliott,thank you for everything

  • Im gonna do a bunch of mdma on October 21 and wear my tacky "Elliott is Missed" shirt to school. It's tradition

  • @sunshinemardrom one of the beautiful things in music, and art in general, is the fact that you can interpret it like u fell u should, trough your experiences, feelings, emotions. If for u it means that, perfect! even if for any other person doesn`t.

  • Anyone knows what this song is about?

    I love it!, my favourite song of his.

    Kinda remainds me of a disfunctional relationship which is "going nowhere"..

    Anyone who agrees ?

  • Elliott, you are my biggest inspiration <3

  • @JesusRebellion

    Yeah, you speak the truth. We (the listeners) are now part of Elliott's legacy.

  • What a song.

    What an artist.

    RIP Elliott...

  • moves me...rip elliott

  • Oh, Elliott! Thank you so much for your music and all which you left us.
